Alumna Deb T. Wins Prestigious NSF Grant




The National Science Foundation recently awarded alumna Deb T. (pictured at right) a Doctoral Dissertation Improvment Grant. Deb is a PhD candidate at Florida State University and will be in Greece this spring doing research on Mycenaean (1600-1200 BC) cooking pots from two different regions. She is trying to uncover the economic and political significance of these vessels. NSF does not award this grant to scholars in the humanities very often; Deb's was an outstanding application. Congratulations Deb! For more information, follow these links:
