Lake Forest College Student of Lakewood Honored with Research Scholarship
Molly Gniady, class of 2021, of Skokie, Illinois was accepted into the Richter Scholar Summer Research Program at Lake Forest College, where she will spend part of the summer researching alongside Professor of Economics and Business Robert Lemke.
As a Richter Scholar, Lee is exploring whether exchanges of property from one person to another-while the giver is still alive-are largely due to tax-avoidance/tax-minimizing considerations or for altruistic purposes.
Academically excellent students with an interest in research are invited to apply for the Richter program in the early spring of their first year. During this time, they work one-on-one with a faculty member, doing independent research in one of a wide variety of fields. As the Richter Scholars live and work together and participate in a weekly colloquium, they become a community of peers, providing encouragement and support for one another's research endeavors. The result is a group of scholars motivated to continue their intellectual achievement in the future.
