Their Stories

Helping Survivors Thrive

“My involvement with the program’s Foster Care Research Group gave me experience conducting academic research on behalf of marginalized communities. It piqued my interest in working with youth who experience trauma.”

Kimberlin Borca ’13

The Way People Think

“I’ve always been really interested in why people make the kinds of decisions they do and believe the kinds of things they do. Once I found out there was a whole area of research looking at moral and ethical questions as well as how religious belief manifests, it really got me.”

Nick Stagnaro ’11

A Better Learning Experience

“A lot of the research projects I work on focus on underserved and underrepresented communities. Through this research, I hope to better understand the educational needs of these communities and improve kids' learning experiences at school and at home.”
