Fayetteville, Ark.(UATV) — Coleman Warren was named a 2022 Rhodes

Scholar for graduate study at Oxford University. Warren is one of the 32

The Rhodes Scholarship is the oldest international fellowship intended to

bring students from countries around the world to the University of Oxford.
These students go on to study for two years at Oxford with eligibility to study
for a third year

Warren said the scholarship reassured him of his life goals.

“It means what I want to do with my life is being af rmed. The Rhodes
scholarship looked at me and they believed that I would be the person to
serve the state of Arkansas,” he said

When he rst found out he was awarded the scholarship, Warren said he told
everyone who helped him get where he is today.

“I immediately screamed and ran around. I called my parents, mentors,

friends, and high school teachers. I did a whole lot of yelling and
celebrating,” he said.

The University of Arkansas has had 11 Rhodes Scholars. Warren is the rst to
receive the award since Anna Terry in 2000
