Research Award Winners

The Friends of the Hatfield Library are pleased to announce the two winners of the first annual Friends of the Library Research Awards:

Jacquelyn Grace for her paper, "Age dependant lateralized prey delivery and chick rearing of Caspian Terns," and Travis Harris for his paper, "Wave-particle duality of bucky balls."

These papers were well-written and well-cited in a style appropriate for their subjects; the authors used numerous and diverse sources of information relevant to their topic and showed a skillful synthesis of sources and thoroughness in the research process.

Each winner will receive a $500 award from the Friends. Congratulations Travis and Jacquelyn!

Thank you to the faculty who encouraged their students to apply; we had four very good submissions. Please keep this in mind for next year, as we will be awarding two more students in Spring, 2007.
