Dr. Maria Gurevich has been selected as Ryerson’s 2016-2017 Massey College Fellow (University of Toronto, http://www.masseycollege.ca/)!
The Massey Fellowship, a prestigious honor awarded to one professor across the university each year, provides opportunities for collaboration with a diverse community of scholars and public intellectuals. Massey College’s mission of fostering intellectual exchange to serve both academic and societal goals is optimally aligned with the SHiFT lab’s critical focus on how academic knowledge intersects with the public imaginary.
Massey College, a unique residential community for graduate students modelled after Oxford University, offers myriad events and opportunities, such as the annual Massey Lectures, the Walter Gordon Symposium, Canadian Journalism Fellowships, Junior Fellowships, and a Scholar-at-Risk program. As such, Massey will act as a model extension hub to support the SHiFT lab’s graduate student research.
Congratulations, Dr. Gurevich!!
