English major Hannah Gould has been awarded the Chancellor’s Gerald F. Scanlon Student Employee of the Year Award. Hannah, the Kinney Center’s Renaissance of the Earth Fellow, is our only HFA student this year to be awarded this honor in recognition of her outstanding research and public humanities projects at the Kinney Center and contributions to the Renaissance of the Earth project.
Hannah’s double-major in English and Applied Plant & Soil Science illustrates the range of her interests, strengths, and cross-disciplinary ambitions. She is the very model of next generation interdisciplinary collaboration in sustainability initiatives, within and beyond UMass.
