Undergraduate Award Recipients

2023-24 undergraduate DEPARTMENT AWARD WINNERS

The English and Film Studies faculty are pleased to announce the recipients of our "Department Awards" for the 2023-24 academic year. These awards are special because they are funded by ongoing donations from friends and faculty who wish to recognize student achievements in areas not covered by our endowed awards. Instructors nominate students' essays, which are then adjudicated by the department's faculty members. The adjudication process is a highlight for many faculty who have the pleasure of seeing the breadth and creativity of student research. Congratulations to all the winners!
