While working as an intern for the Migration Policy Institute, Kenneth Okoth '01 wrote a profile of his home country, Kenya, that has been published on the institute's online information source.

"Kenya: What Role for Diaspora in Development?," the article by Okoth, is published in the August 2003 edition of The Migration Information Source, which "provides fresh thought, authoritative data from numerous global organizations and governments, and global analysis of international migration and refugee trends. A unique online resource, the Source offers useful tools, vital data, and essential facts on the movement of people worldwide."

Okoth, a graduate student at Georgetown University, earned his St. Lawrence degree in German, and studied in Denmark. He participated in student government, was elected to Phi Beta Kappa and was an intern in the University Communications office as an undergraduate. He is also a former admissions staff member.
