For Prof. Lee Badgett, knowledge is more than an academic pursuit. It’s a call to arms, and a mandate to make a positive contribution to the world in which we live. CRF joins in celebrating her new book, The Public Professor: How to Use Your Research to Change the World.

CRF is pleased to announce the 2016-2017 Family Research Scholars. Six faculty members were selected to participate in the fourteenth annual cohort of the FRS Program. The new Scholars are Prof. Ezekiel Kimball, Prof. Sofiya Alhassan, Prof. Mariana Pereira, Prof. Louis F. Graham, Prof. Alexandra Jesse, and Prof. Brigitte Holt.

We are pleased to welcome Angela Russo, a veteran communications director and event planner, to the CRF team. Angela brings a wealth of strategic marketing widsom and is already making a splash in many ways!

Prof. Haydon considers CRF “a natural fit” for her research interests, which include attachment processes and romantic relationship development in adolescents and adults.
