Waterford Receives Graduate Fellowship from Alpha Lambda Delta

MANCHESTER, N.H (August 11, 2022) – Emily Coderre, a Waterford, Conn. resident and 2021 graduate of Saint Anselm College, received the Alpha Lambda Delta Graduate Fellowship in the amount of $2,000 toward her 2nd year at Fordham University.

Alpha Lambda Delta is a national honor society for first-year undergraduate students into which Coderre was inducted during her time at Saint Anselm and is still a member today. To be considered for this fellowship, students must have maintained a cumulative GPA of a 3.5 or higher through their undergraduate graduation. Selection is also based on recommendations, essay questions, and campus and community activities. The fellowship is given to only 28 ALD members across the country per year who are pursuing a graduate degree.

Coderre received her Bachelor of Arts in social work and peace and justice studies from Saint Anselm College in 2021 and is currently pursuing a Masters in social work at Fordham University.

During her time at Saint Anselm, Coderre was heavily involved with both Alpha Lambda Delta and the Meelia Center. She was the service committee chair for Alpha Lambda Delta for three years, a coordinator at the Meelia Center, a big sister through Big Brother Big Sister, and was the president of the Social Justice Club. She also studied abroad in Cape Town, South Africa.

In her time thus far at Fordham, she interned at the Department of Health in Brooklyn this past year and is now interning for the Department of Education in the Bronx.
