Accomplishments
Birss Fellowship Program
Professor John Howard Birss, Jr. Memorial Library Fund" at Roger Williams University 'a significant or culturally impactful book is chosen annually to be honored. In my case, a peer and I traveled with Author Adam Braver to the Columbia University Archives. There, we took a look into Stephan Crane, the author of the Classic 'Red Badge of Courage'. Following research, we then designed a exhibit for the school library and ran poetry groups using Crane's written word. We also created a brochure and invited a guest speaker. Overall, it was an amazing, enriching, experience.
