Class of 2015
Hometown: Fort Lauderdale, FL

Kevin Rodengen, of Fort Lauderdale, FL, graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Earth Sciences and a minor in Biology. He intends to spend the next few years after graduation living a nomadic lifestyle as the director of travel documentaries, shedding light on living a life that is true to one’s heart. As a Levine Scholar, Kevin focused the greater part of his time on campus creating a student community garden with the goals of creating a space that will foster education in sustainable agriculture and promote student green initiatives. He spent a semester at the University of Iceland studying glaciers and volcanoes both in the field and in the classroom. He travelled to Israel and Nepal, which further developed his passion for videography. “The Levine Scholarship gave me the opportunity to explore the world, which inevitably became a journey of self-exploration,” Kevin recalls. “These experiences shaped me and helped me better understand the impact I would like to have on the world.”
