The US-Ireland Alliance recently awarded a prestigious George J. Mitchell Scholarship to Tawreak “Ty” Gamble-Eddington of Springfield, a senior at Union College in Schenectady, New York. The scholarship will allow him to do a year of post-graduate study at Dublin’s Trinity College. Out of 453 applicants, only 12 were awarded scholarships.
“I was extremely ecstatic, especially since I got my first choice school (in Dublin),” Eddington-Gamble said about the award. “I was, simply put, on Cloud 9.”
Of African-American and Irish American parents, he is the son of Brandi Gamble and Joseph Eddington, both of Springfield. His great-grandmother’s roots go back to Limerick, Ireland. He will study Race, Ethnicity and Conflict at Trinity, but also hopes to continue researching his Irish ancestry.
