2018 Mar 8

Kristena Merritt of Little Rock, AR, won the Graduate Creative Works Award for her paper, “Powerfemme Conversations,” during the UA Little Rock College of Social Sciences and Communications annual Research and Creative Works Showcase Feb. 27.

The showcase featured about 65 presentations from students, faculty, and staff of the college, many of which highlight the college's mission to apply "theory and research to drive social change and inspire human expression, reflection, and interconnection."

"I really believe that we use our own work not just to understand, but to reach out and try to improve the world around us," CSSC Dean Julien Mirivel said.
