Rhodes Scholar from University of Michigan fulfilling mother’s ‘Legacy of Education’

ANN ARBOR, MI – Emmanuel Orozco Castellanos’ parents in Mexico finished elementary school, but had no other opportunity to further their studies.

His mother Delia, however, knew education was the way forward for the next generation.

“My mother always wanted an education to be her legacy, especially because she didn’t have access to it,” Castellanos said.

Six years ago, the family moved to the Detroit area from Mexico. Now, Castellanos, a University of Michigan graduate is a 2024 Rhodes Scholar set to jet to Oxford University in England.

Castellanos is the university’s 31st Rhodes Scholar since the award’s inception in 1902. He majored in international studies and minored in critical translation and Latin American and Caribbean studies and is now a UM researcher.

Castellanos said he is “profoundly humbled and moved to the core” over the honor, which will cover his expenses to continue his studies at the prestigious English university.

“It reaffirmed that migrants make enormous contributions to society when we allow them to forge their future,” he said. “My parents — humble people and immigrant laborers — taught me so much about generosity and compassion. Though often unacknowledged, their contributions, as well as those of migrants across the country, have inspired me in my endeavors all these years.”

Castellanos started his academic journey in a small town in the Mexican state of Jalisco, located on the Pacific Coast, whose main city is Puerta Vallarta. His family was working class, he said, as his mother was an elementary school cook and his father Francisco was a landscaper.

His favorite subjects growing up were science, astronomy and history. He jokes that if he were better at math, he would be an astronaut. Since he’s not, he said history emerged as his favorite course.

“History tells us that we are all connected, that we have a common fate,” he said.

After Castellanos graduated from high school in Mexico, he said the family moved to Ecorse outside Detroit so he and his twin sister could pursue higher education. He said he repeated his senior year at River Rouge High School to improve his English.

Language is important to Castellanos, from learning multiple languages to winning a high school debate championship. Experiencing different cultures is also vital to his interests, from his experience acclimating as a migrant to studying at Henry Ford College after high school among a large Arab population.

“My classroom was always very diverse, and Henry Ford was an incredibly welcoming space to multilingual students,” he said. “That kind of helped me find my voice.”

Castellanos transferred to the University of Michigan for its international studies program, which allows students to focus on law, security, economics, culture or global health, he said. He is interested in studying how to tell refugee stories in order to secure more support for them, he said.

“Storytelling is critical to increasing support for refugees and funding for humanitarian action. Yet, migrants and refugees are rarely given the opportunity to use their voice,” he said.

At Oxford, Castellanos will pursue master’s degrees in refugee and Latin American studies. The English university pioneered refugee studies in the 1980s, he added.

When he graduated from the Ann Arbor campus in 2022, Castellanos beamed when taking pictures with his mom all across campus.

“We were accomplishing something that we had been waiting for so long (to do),” he said, noting that the moment was a little bittersweet due to having to translate the graduation ceremony to his non-English fluent parents.

In addition to the degrees he will seek at Oxford, Castellanos will work to strengthen the inter-American asylum regime, he said. As a migrant himself, he said he relates to the parts of the refugee experience about acclimating to new cultures, while he also wants to improve the migration management mechanisms to be more efficient and humane.

Eventually, he wants to fulfill a dream to work for the United Nations in its High Commissioner for Refugees.

“I would definitely like to work with people on the ground providing humanitarian assistance,” he said, “but part of my vision also includes storytelling…empowering (migrants and refugees) to tell their own stories. Reclaiming one’s story is an act of defiance and self-determination.”

The Rhodes Scholarship is the result of a lot of people, from parents to mentors, helping Castellanos along the way, he said.

“I accept this honor with a profound sense of responsibility,” he said. 

Becario Rhodes de la Universidad de Michigan cumpliendo con el ‘Legado de Educación' de su madre

ANN ARBOR—Los padres de Emmanuel Orozco Castellanos en México terminaron la escuela primaria, pero no tuvieron más oportunidades para continuar sus estudios. 

Sin embargo, su madre Delia sabía que la educación era el camino a seguir para la próxima generación. 

“Mi madre siempre quiso que la educación fuera su legado, especialmente porque ella no tuvo acceso a ella”, dijo Castellanos. 

Hace seis años, la familia se mudó al área metropolitana de Detroit desde México. Ahora, Castellanos, un graduado de la Universidad de Michigan, es becario Rhodes 2024 y se prepara para ir a la Universidad de Oxford en Inglaterra. 

Castellanos es el 31º becario Rhodes de la universidad desde la creación del premio en 1902. Se especializó en estudios internacionales con una doble especialización en traducción crítica y estudios latinoamericanos y del Caribe, y ahora es investigador en la U-M. 

Castellanos dijo que está “profundamente honrado y emocionado hasta el fondo” por el honor, que cubrirá sus gastos para continuar sus estudios en la prestigiosa universidad inglesa. 

“Reafirmó que los migrantes hacen enormes contribuciones a la sociedad cuando les permitimos forjar su futuro”, dijo. “Mis padres, personas humildes y trabajadores inmigrantes, me enseñaron mucho sobre generosidad y compasión. Aunque a menudo no se reconocen, sus contribuciones, así como las de los migrantes en todo el país, me han inspirado en mis esfuerzos todos estos años “. 

Castellanos comenzó su viaje académico en una pequeña ciudad en el estado mexicano de Jalisco, ubicado en la costa del Pacífico, cuya ciudad principal es Puerto Vallarta. Su familia era de clase trabajadora, dijo, ya que su madre era cocinera de una escuela primaria y su padre Francisco era jardinero. 

Sus asignaturas favoritas mientras crecía eran ciencia, astronomía e historia. Bromea diciendo que si fuera mejor en matemáticas, sería astronauta. Como no lo es, dijo que la historia emergió como su curso favorito. 

“La historia nos dice que todos estamos conectados, que compartimos un destino común”, dijo.

Después de que Castellanos se graduó de la escuela secundaria en México, dijo que la familia se mudó a Ecorse, afuera de Detroit, para que él y su hermana gemela pudieran buscar una educación superior. Dijo que repitió su último año en la Escuela Secundaria River Rouge para mejorar su inglés. 

El lenguaje es importante para Castellanos, desde aprender varios idiomas hasta ganar un campeonato de debate en la escuela secundaria. Experimentar diferentes culturas también es vital para sus intereses, desde su experiencia como migrante hasta estudiar en Henry Ford College después de la escuela secundaria entre una gran población árabe. 

“Mi salón de clases siempre fue muy diverso, y Henry Ford fue un espacio increíblemente acogedor para los estudiantes multilingües”, dijo. “Eso me ayudó a encontrar mi voz”. 

Castellanos se transfirió a la Universidad de Michigan por su programa de estudios internacionales, que permite a los estudiantes centrarse en derecho, seguridad, economía, cultura o salud global, dijo. Está interesado en estudiar cómo contar las historias de los refugiados para conseguir más apoyo para ellos, dijo. 

“La narración de historias es fundamental para aumentar el apoyo a los refugiados y la financiación para la acción humanitaria. Sin embargo, rara vez se da a los migrantes y refugiados la oportunidad de usar su voz”, dijo. 

En Oxford, Castellanos cursará maestrías en estudios de refugiados y latinoamericanos. La universidad inglesa fue pionera en los estudios sobre refugiados en la década de 1980, añadió.

Cuando se graduó del campus de Ann Arbor en 2022, Castellanos estaba radiante al tomarse fotos con su madre en todo el campus. 

“Estábamos logrando algo por lo que habíamos estado esperando tanto (para hacer)”, dijo, señalando que el momento fue un poco agridulce debido a tener que traducir la ceremonia de graduación a sus padres que no hablan inglés con fluidez.

Además de los títulos que buscará en Oxford, Castellanos trabajará para fortalecer el régimen de asilo interamericano, dijo. Siendo él mismo un migrante, dijo que se identifica con partes de la experiencia del refugiado acerca de acomodarse a nuevas culturas, mientras que también quiere mejorar los mecanismos de gestión de la migración para que sean más eficientes y humanos.

Eventualmente, quiere cumplir un sueño de trabajar para las Naciones Unidas en su Alto Comisionado para los Refugiados. 

“Definitivamente me gustaría trabajar con las personas en el terreno brindando asistencia humanitaria”, dijo, “pero parte de mi visión también incluye contar historias…empoderar (a migrantes y refugiados) para contar sus propias historias. Reclamar la propia historia es un acto de desafío y autodeterminación “. 

La Beca Rhodes es el resultado de muchas personas, desde los padres hasta los mentores, que han ayudado a Castellanos en su camino, dijo.

“Acepto este honor con un profundo sentido de responsabilidad”, dijo.
