Two Cañda College Students Named to Phi Theta Kappa All-California Academic Team

Jeremy Morales Madrigal and Isaiah Roggow will be honored at March 22 awards luncheon in Sacramento.

 

A chemical engineering major and a student studying nutrition science have been selected to the All-California Academic Team by Phi Theta Kappa, the national honor society for two-year colleges. Both will be recognized at a March 22 awards luncheon in Sacramento.

Jeremy Morales Madrigal of Redwood City is studying chemical engineering and was the only community college student selected last year to participate in Stanford University’s prestigious Center on Polymer Interfaces and Macromolecular Assemblies Summer Undergraduate Research Experience. He is hoping to transfer to Stanford to finish his undergraduate studies.

Isaiah Roggow of Santa Clara is a nutrition science major who is focusing on community health and plans to transfer to UC Davis next fall. Roggow has submitted an economics paper to several agencies for publication.

Both students are actively involved in Phi Theta Kappa at Cañada College and are members of the school’s Honors Program.
