January’s lecture features Cecily Evonuk (they/them/theirs), 2024 Tee A. Corrine Memorial Travel Fellow. Evonuk is a dedicated third-year undergraduate student at Oregon State University where they are currently pursuing a double major in history and women, gender, and sexuality studies, with a studio art minor. Evonuk's focus centers on American history, with an emphasis on civil rights, human rights, and the LGBTQ+ liberation movement. Their passion for historical research and commitment to social justice issues has led them to set aspirations to continue their academic journey beyond the undergraduate level. Post-graduation, they plan to pursue a master’s program in History and subsequently pursue a PhD. Evonuk's academic achievements have earned them several prestigious awards and fellowships, including the Emil H. Pubols Award in American History, the Drucilla Shepard Smith Award, the Finley Academic Excellence Scholarship, the Dr. Arthur E. Gravatt History Scholarship, and the Thomas and Margaret Meehan History Award.
