Cambridge Who's Who
/Cambridge Who's Who/ - Uniondale, NY, August 10, 2008—Randy Narod, president of Cambridge Who's Who among Executives, Professionals and Entrepreneurs and owner of Long Beach Bagel Cafe, is pleased to announce that Rachael Goldberg of Long Beach, NY is the recipient of a Cambridge Who's Who Future Leaders Award, including a $1,000 scholarship.
Cambridge Who's Who called for essays at Long Beach High School and other high schools on Long Island, where Cambridge Who's Who is headquartered. Cambridge asked students to describe leadership attributes, demonstrate their leadership qualities and identify an individual who epitomizes leadership.
The Cambridge Who's Who Scholarship Committee selected Goldberg's essay, in which she says, "Anyone is capable of being a leader. What sets real leaders apart is the willingness to put yourself out there." Goldberg plans a career as a spokesperson or lobbyist for a genetic research facility or special needs advocacy. She says, "My mission is to promote genetic research and improve the welfare of the mentally ill."
As Goldberg points out, "I'm not just dreaming—I've already taken actions as a leader. I've been part of my high school's Emerging Leaders Program, working to improve relations between students and the administration." She also earned an AP Scholar Award and Model Congress speaking awards, signaling her capabilities as a spokesperson.
In accepting the Cambridge Who's Who Scholarship, Goldberg thanked Narod and said she is encouraged "that my efforts have brought me in the right direction." Goldberg will attend the University of Miami, majoring in political science and psychology. She will minor in genetics, philosophy, ethics or creative writing, which shows her creativity in formulating a degree to help her accomplish her goals.
Randy Narod says, "Rachael has already shown she is a leader, and we believe she will accomplish great things. Cambridge Who's Who is pleased to support Rachael's goals, and I look forward to welcoming Rachael as a full-fledged member of Cambridge Who's Who. Since we recognize leaders in business, entrepreneurship and the professions, it's fitting that we recognize accomplished students like Rachael who will become their generation's leaders."
Jasmie Graham earned an honorable mention for her essay, in which she identifies Rosa Parks as the epitome of leadership. Jasmie writes, Parks "stood up (by sitting down) for what she believed in. She helped to start a movement that made a positive difference in the world."
Randy Narod points out, "Jasmie plans to become an educator so that she can meet her goal of changing the lives of children for the better. She has an excellent start with her involvement in the Long Beach Martin Luther King Community Center Youth Council, where she helped plan activities for youth in the community. Jasmie is well on her way to becoming a leader of Cambridge Who's Who caliber."
