Graduate student Kobe Miller came to Northeastern University from New Zealand to study sports leadership in 2023. This 9,000-mile leap led him to a job in youth development at the Boston Celtics. On Tuesday, Miller, a high-performance rower and athletes’ mental health advocate, was one of 100 graduate and professional students inducted into the inaugural Laurel and Scroll 100 Society of Distinction — a Northeastern graduate school equivalent of the university’s Huntington 100.
Laurel and Scroll 100 and Huntington 100 collectively are known as Northeastern University Societies of Distinction that honor outstanding students for achievements aligning with the university’s mission, ideals, values and academic plan. “It’s a real honor to be able to leave my mark here at Northeastern,” Miller said. “It is amazing to be recognized among some really talented and hard-working people in all different fields, especially as an international student.”
