Golden laurels
Art history and anthropology major Piper Prolago has been named a Global Winner in the annual Global Undergraduate Awards for an essay she wrote about a Mughal image of the Prophet Muhammad's Night Journey. "This honor makes me really proud of the work I've done," said Prolago, who also serves as the editor-in-chief of The Collegian. "It also speaks to the excellence of TU's art history faculty and their creation of opportunities for students to produce original scholarship."
