Woojin Lim is a Grade 12 student at Fraser Heights Secondary in Surrey who, after studying philosophy at SFU and earning a top prize in the 2018 HART Prize for Human Rights, is now also weighing offers from Yale and Harvard University for his undergraduate education.
Lim's essay, "The Refugee Crisis, Burden-Sharing and Moral Obligations," took first place in the junior category. He took Philosophy 121: Global Justice in fall 2017 as part of the Concurrent Studies program, which admits high-achieving secondary school students into undergraduate courses on campus, giving them a taste of university life as well as pushing academic achievement.
