Sociology senior Shylah Jones won a $100 third prize in the Scholar-Citizen Scholarship Contest in the multimedia category for her video short titled, “Live, Learn, Love, Teach.” The award was announced in an April 24 email to the RU community: “The Quality Enhancement Launch Team expresses its sincere appreciation to the RU Foundation for supporting the contest by providing the scholarship funds; to all of the students who, by submitting essays or videos, demonstrated their interest in the Scholar-Citizen initiative; and to the faculty who encouraged and mentored those students.” Jones was advised by Dr. Melinda Wagner.
