Congratulations to HUMA PhD students Philip Akoje, Long Vu, and John Heckman, who delivered “Lightning Talks” about their research at the Fall Term Symposium hosted by the Humanities Research Institute. The Symposium was held on Monday, Dec. 8th, and featured Brock graduate students, postdoctoral researchers, and faculty members. Each participant was tasked with the challenge of presenting their research project in just 5 minutes!
