Anskar Fosse ’07: Leads Life with Knowledge, Vision, Honor

The accomplishments of Anskar Fosse ’07 during his time at Ranney School were a true testament of the even greater successes that were yet to come. A recent Gettysburg College graduate, Anskar was one of five Gettysburg students to receive a prestigious grant from the U.S. Department of State’s Fulbright Program this spring.

As a Panther, Anskar served on the school’s Judicial Review Board, was a member of the National Honor Society, and participated on cross country and track teams. A former recipient of the Faculty Prize, awarded annually to one male and female student whose conduct best exemplifies the school’s mission and philosophy, Anskar graduated from Ranney well-equipped with the Knowledge, Vision, Honor needed to succeed.

Anskar continued to excel at Gettysburg College in Pennsylvania, where he pursued a double major in English and film studies. While on campus, Anskar participated in the college’s student-run television station (GBURG TV), community service fraternity – Alpha Phi Omega - and Honor Commission. Off campus, he studied abroad at Lancaster University in the United Kingdom, interned at the Independent Feature Project in New York City and traveled to the On Sustainability Conference in Hamilton, New Zealand where he and five other Undergraduate Fellows presented their papers on economic, social, and political implications through the Eisenhower Institute.

This recent college graduate now lives in Korea through the U.S. Department of State’s Fulbright Program as well. Each year, the Fulbright Program offers prestigious grants that promote the learning, teaching and conducting of research in nations around the world. Anskar hopes to learn more about the nation’s film industry and gain footage for his graduate portfolio while teaching English to students in Korea during his stay. An Eagle Scout himself, he will also volunteer with the Korea Scout Association.

The Ranney community is extremely proud and honored that one of its own has continued to carry the school’s longstanding tradition of “excellence” well into his college career and beyond.

"While at Ranney, I learned to balance my time — with academics, running and other extracurriculars. As a result, I was well-prepared to handle my busy schedule at Gettysburg as well as the demands of teaching and living in a foreign country."
