Mike King Presents Research at Clement Stacy Memorial Undergraduate Research Conference


Mike King presented his paper on the Ku Klux Klan's educational policy during the Progressive Era to the 2014 Clement S Stacy Memorial Undergraduate Research Conference sponsored by Purdue University-Calumet.  Mike did a fantastic job presenting, and handled the Q&A after his talk with aplomb.  Dr. Crawford accompanied Mike, and also learned a great deal - the best spot to buy pizza in Fort Wayne, for instance.  Mike is currently engaged in his student teaching experience and will be looking for his first career stop soon.

Experiences such as this and the previous Phi Alpha Theta Conference are what separate the HPJ experience from that found at other universities.  The chance to share one's research typically is a feature of graduate school.  We strongly encourage our majors to take advantage of as many of these opportunities as possible.

Well done Mike, and best of luck for your job search!
