Jenna Cavelle, CRS Major, Receives the Judith Lee Stronach Baccalaureate Prize
Conservation and Resource Studies major Jenna Cavelle was named a recipient of the 2012 Judith Lee Stronach Prize. The prize supports intellectual and creative pursuits that heighten awareness of issues of social consciousness and the public good. The award gives bright, ambitious students the opportunity to extend and reflect upon their undergraduate work at Berkeley by undertaking a special project after their graduation. Winning projects are creative in the broadest sense, explore themes of significant interest to holders of the prize, and strive to further understanding of what constitutes humane and effective participation in our worldwide community.
