A Season of Reflection: 2023 Graduate School Stories That Inspired
The end of the year is a time for reflection, expressing gratitude for all that has passed and embracing the excitement to come in the new year ahead. There’s a certain magic in the air – nostalgia and anticipation for quality time with friends, family and loved ones.
As students finish final exams and head into winter break, we invite you to pause and look back with us on the stories that made 2023 special, like celebrating graduate students’ accomplishments and welcoming a new class, honoring three doctoral students selected for a prestigious dissertation award, recognizing faculty for breakthrough research awards and hosting a conference imagining the future of the humanities in higher education on the Hilltop.
Looked at together, they demonstrate the diversity of our graduate Hoya community and how we can find strength and hope within our differences to come together and create change.
