FURSCA

Renée Kreger recognized for outstanding contributions in her field by the National Collegiate Honors Council.

Music and physics majors Nathaniel Jennings, ’22, and Daniel McGarry, ’22, are concluding a successful undergraduate run. 

With everything from art to science, this year’s celebration of student research promises to be educational for everyone.

The Marilyn Crandell Schleg Archivist and Special Collections Librarian is the new director of FURSCA, one of Albion’s signature programs.

Both on campus and virtually, Albion College students successfully produce research and scholarship.

While focusing on freshwater macroinvertebrates, Jess Garcia-Lopez, ’22, is also adding knowledge around wild rice growing in the Whitehouse Nature Center.

The Wilson Institute for Medicine and Brown Honors Program member is one of just 12 students nationwide to win a 2021 Undergraduate Research Award from the American Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology.

From uncovering old documents to gathering oral histories from alumni, the Build Albion Fellow’s FURSCA project adds to her experience gained as a student employee in the College archives.

“I feel like at a bigger school, I’d be very intimidated to talk to my professor in that way, where we can be vulnerable with each other. Having that small faculty-to-student ratio makes it very comfortable to have conversations like that.”
