This experience with UROP through the Women and Gender Fellowship has been great. It’s supplied me with the know-how of conducting humanities-based research, which I have been doing in a half-realized way in my humanities classes all these years. Coming in as a freshman to Michigan, not even remotely did I consider UROP as a great, pragmatic option for me to pursue. While I definitely regret having had this misconception, I am glad that I’ll be able to graduate from Michigan having had a formal research experience. I anticipate continuing the kind of work that I can do in the humanities in my future education.
