Curiosity in Context
Your Intersectional Lens
Student to Scholar
As a student, you've answered many questions—and spent many nights studying to learn the answers. Working as a scholar is a collaborative process driven by your curiosity. The classroom is only part of your story. You have your own questions—some without answers and some in need of better answers. Research and creative work puts you in the scholarly conversation, and your curiosity moves the conversation in new directions.
