A research paper by Christ College and College of Arts and Sciences junior Halina Hopkins (Columbus, Ind.) has been accepted for publication in the 2011 Proceedings of the National Council on Undergraduate Research (NCUR), a prestigious national journal which features the scholarship of students who have presented papers at NCUR. Publication in the NCUR Proceedings is highly selective. Only about 15 percent of the essays submitted are selected for publication. Hopkins wrote the paper, “Kolleena Ensan: Samira Said’s Music as an Interpretation of Moroccan Women’s Cultural Identity,” in her freshman year as part of the research component of the Christ College Freshman Program. The paper was selected by a student selection committee for presentation at the spring 2011 CC Student Scholarship Symposium. Hopkins majors in biology and environmental science.
