History Students to present research at Communitas 2012

Here at Grace College we are gearing up for Communitas 2012 – an event (March 27) that encourages and showcases student scholarship, creative expression, as well as the integration of faith and learning. We have over 25 students involved from all across the disciplines!

Hillary Burgardt, “Mongolian Nomads: Left without Direction”
Carrie Halquist, “Conscientious Objectors in WWII: Why Their Story Has Not Been Told”
