Doctoral and Masters Committees Chaired and/or Member 20 - 25 I was instrumental in seven former students receiving prestigious Hartford awards and significant financial support for their research. I mentored faculty and students who became Hartford Faculty Scholars, Dissertation Fellows, and Pre-dissertation fellows.
