Student instrumental in Thai cave rescue receives scholarship
Adul Samon came to campus for a six-week Precollege program this summer to study biology and take a personal essay course. Adul was one of 12 boys who, along with their soccer coach, were trapped in a flooded underground cave in Thailand in 2018. Their dramatic rescue was recently made into the film Thirteen Lives.
