President’s Scholars take a break
in the Hughes-Trigg Student Center.

President’s Scholar Francis Goldshmid
(right) was a member of the “Geniuses” team on the national TV show Treasure Hunters.
With fellow SMU students Charles Taylor (left) and Sam Khurana, he solved puzzles to
follow clues taking them all over the world, leading to a $3 million treasure.
Goldshmid, a junior majoring in chemistry and biological sciences, plans to
attend medical school. Above, they were featured on the cover of the fall-winter
2006
SMU Magazine.
