I wanted to inspire, guide, and educate students the same way my mom and grandmother did, yet I wasn&#8217;t sure what medium I would be the most effective at. Studying history was never my initial plan when I entered college, but, as I took class after class, I realized the importance and impact of the subject. WSU courses like HIS 300, HIS 469, and CES 440 really enhanced my experience as a student researching but also cemented my global and inclusive approach to teaching. I expect to be using this historical scholarship and interest in contemporary issues in my future. Specifically, I am excited to bring this to my master&#8217;s in education program at Wake Forest University that I am starting this summer. I cannot wait to get started and could not have done it without the support, mentorship, and community at WSU.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\r\n\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"wsu-row wsu-row--single\" >\r\n    \n<div class=\"wsu-column\"  style=\"\">\r\n\t\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading  wsu-font-size--large\">Please join us in congratulating students who were selected as Outstanding Seniors or received Academic Achievement Awards!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Claudia Jacobo<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Jaden Gabbard<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Shalina Nail<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Fernando Nava<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Tracy Shirer<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Jessica Edwards<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Zachary Ristau<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Emma Hedberg<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Ryan Husby<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>William Bradley<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Emma Hedberg<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Bailey Inama<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>McKenna Plowman<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<\/div>\r\n\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"wsu-row wsu-row--single\" >\r\n    \n<div class=\"wsu-column\"  style=\"\">\r\n\t\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading  wsu-font-size--large\">The department has awarded the following scholarships to support current students pursuing a major or minor in History:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Asia Program Excellence Award<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Katherine Gilbert Blinn Scholarship in History<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>George and Bernadine Converse historical Endowment<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>India Research and Scholarship Fund<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>William W.
