Family seeks help from community
Desmond Ahmad Mullins, who graduated from Landrum High School in 2006, has been accepted to study at the University of Oxford
in the U.K. this summer. To help cover the costs of this study, Mullins and his family would welcome help from the community.
With help from a Rotary Club scholarship, Mullins attended Clemson University, where he majored in financial management with a minor in accounting. He earned membership into Alpha Lambda Delta honors fraternity and was a member of the Clemson University Finance Club.
While he was in college, Mullins spent the summers of 2007 and 2008 working as a camp counselor for the 21st Century Builder’s Club in Polk County.
After graduating cum laude in May 2010 from Clemson, Mullins accepted a position with The Johns Hopkins University’s Center for Talented Youth Program. He was then accepted into the Florida Coastal School of Law. After two semesters, he transferred to the Florida State University College of Law, where he is currently studying. He has been on the dean’s list and expects to graduate in May 2013.
