South Brunswick High Teen Accepted Into Cornell Program

SOUTH BRUNSWICK, NJ — Ronaq Sahni, a rising junior at South Brunswick High School, has been selected to participate in the Economics for Leaders program conducted this week at Cornell University in Ithaca, New York.

Sahni will be at the conference this week, July 22 – 28. He is one of only 40 students from around the country accepted into the program, which is sponsored by the Foundation for Teaching Economics. Sahni was chosen for his academic performance along with leadership experience.

During the week-long Economics for Leaders program, students attain an understanding of economic reasoning principles and how to employ these concepts for successful and effective leadership. Additionally, participants achieve a heightened awareness of the impact their decisions have on others and the responsibility that awareness imposes. Economics for Leaders is an unparalleled learning and growing opportunity.

Students who have attended Economics for Leaders programs in prior years have called it "the experience of a lifetime."
