Wilson Students Present at the 2024 PHA Meeting
Conferences are a great way for college students to learn about the latest research in their field, network with other professionals, and gain experience presenting their own work. Students from the Wilson College history program and history club attended the Pennsylvania Historical Association meeting, October 10 through 12, in Johnstown PA.
There were three undergraduate student poster presentations, one graduate student presentation, and a presentation by Maxine Wagenhoffer, Director of the Hankey Center for the History of Womens Education, while Bonnie Rock-McCutcheon, Assistant Professor of History & Ancient World Studies, was the coordinator of the Student Research Session.
