Based on faculty and instructor nominations to the Undergraduate Studies Committee, the department chooses one undergraduate major to feature in our monthly Sociology & Criminology Rising Star. This program recognizes the extraordinary achievements, accomplishments, and activities of our undergraduate students.
Please congratulate Sarah Lee Jasmi, our newest Sociology & Criminology Rising Star! Sarah was nominated (from our Singapore campus) for their top performance in their upper-level courses, high levels of engagement as a student, passion for sociology and communication, as well as their impressive leadership qualities.
When asked about their Sociology and Criminology classes, Sarah stated: What I appreciate most about my sociology and criminology courses is how they challenge me to think critically about social structures, policies, and systemic inequalities. The interdisciplinary nature of these classes, especially when intersecting with communication studies, has deepened my understanding of societal issues and their real-world implications. I also value the engaging discussions and diverse perspectives that my professors and peers bring to the classroom.
Congratulations Sarah, and thanks for all of your great work!
