 The Ankara University SYLFF fellows are beginning to achieve prominence in managerial and other leadership positions, especially in the Turkish departments of foreign affairs and finance.

 Each of the fellows has been a genuine achiever, not only in academics but in leadership, both in school and in outreach to the larger community. Sherilyn Siy, a SYLFF fellow, best expresses the impact of SYLFF: "As a member of the SYLFF Fellows Council, my work is a way for me to give back and do more, having received so much from SYLFF."
