A native of Bigelow, Arkansas, Herman graduated in May with bachelor\u2019s degrees in finance and economics. Prior to COVID, Herman had planned to travel to Thailand this year to teach English as a second language, but she said things have a way of working out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cIt\u2019s amazing to see that some things are just meant to be,\u201d Herman said. \u201cI am lucky that I started an amazing new job. Converging Capital has a great company culture. I am incredibly fortunate to work with Bryan Hosto, who is also an alumni of UA Little Rock. Each role is critically important. When you give an idea, it\u2019s heard and weighed on its merits and not on a person\u2019s position. There are always opportunities to grow and succeed.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Converging Capital is an Arkansas company that works with banks, credit unions, finance companies, and other businesses to provide recovery solutions for their charged off and delinquent accounts. In her new role, Herman handles social media, the website, and marketing campaigns. On the acquisitions side, she conducts market research and assesses and evaluates new portfolios.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cI love the ability to not be limited to just doing the same thing,\u201d Herman said. \u201cI can work in different capacities and pursue different opportunities. It keeps it exciting. It\u2019s a fast-paced job.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
At UA Little Rock, Herman was a member of the Donaghey Scholars Honors Program, Student Government Association, and was the co-chair for the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention Out of the Darkness Walk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cI truly believe that the faculty and administrators in the School of Business want to push you forward,\u201d Herman said. \u201cThey push you to learn hard and soft technical skills. I was also a Donaghey Scholar, and that program enabled me to get a college education that I couldn\u2019t receive without them. I was able to grow as a person, and that\u2019s something I learned at UA Little Rock.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
She found success in a number of student business competitions, winning UA Little Rock\u2019s Sold in 60 Seconds competition, and was a finalist in the e-Fest Business Plan Competition and the Arkansas Governor\u2019s Cup.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Herman also credits the professional work experience she received while a student as contributing to her success in the workforce. She worked as a market research assistant at the Arkansas Small Business and Technology Development Center, an intern at Arkansas District Export Council, and an accounting intern at DYNE Hospitality Group.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWhen I transitioned from a student to the workplace, I was ready to jump right in,\u201d Herman said. \u201cUA Little Rock made that transition a lot smoother, and I am so incredibly grateful for that. I had so many opportunities for internships.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Coming full circle, Herman plans to take a vacation to Thailand next year as well as start the part-time program at the UA Little Rock William H. Bowen School of Law. She also plans on continuing to tutor with AR Kids Read.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cSomething I learned at UA Little Rock that is helpful is to give yourself grace,\u201d Herman said. \u201cCollege is one of the most pivotal times in your life. You are growing. It\u2019s also one of the most challenging. It\u2019s incredibly important to give yourself grace and to have a healthy outlet. I am grateful for Donaghey Scholars, School of Business, and Health Services. I am incredibly grateful for everyone who invested in me and believed in me, and I look forward to paying it forward in the future.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Scholar Gage Pipkin completes National Theatre Institute Theatermakers Summer Intensive"},"content":{"rendered":"\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A University of Arkansas at Little Rock student completed a highly competitive four-week summer theater program where participants create new work while training with professionals and emerging artists.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Gage Pipkin, a senior theatre major and Donaghey Scholar from Jonesboro, finished the National Theater Institute\u2019s Theatermakers Summer Intensive program during June and July at the Eugene O\u2019Neill Theater Center in Waterford, Connecticut. He was one of five playwrights in the 26-student program.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Over the four-week program, Pipkin helped write four new shows, participated in daily master classes and workshops, and earned eight credit hours for college.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThere are no other words to describe my experience at the National Theatre Institute Theatermakers program other than one challenging, magical state of existence,\u201d Pipkin said. \u201cTo be able to make art unapologetically with others during such times is something I will never forget. NTI has opened the door to a whole community that I now cannot imagine my life without and taught me that art can be made anywhere as long as you have brave, trustworthy people in your company.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The National Theatre Institute led Gage to create a network of artists that he said will be valuable in his future career in the arts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThis program opened my world vastly to other artists,\u201d Pipkin said. \u201cBecause we shared our artwork, I feel close to those people. Now I have a whole community of artists that is mainly on the East coast. My playwriting mentor for the program, we stayed in contact and we had a meeting about my work when I was in New York. Some of the other students may want to direct my work at their school. That is a possibility because of this program.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Two of the four original works that Pipkin wrote and were produced during the summer program include \u201cALEXANDRITE\u201d and \u201cOTHERWORLD: A Queer Nightlife Musical.\u201d Set in a pseudo world reminiscent of the Salem witch trial period, \u201cAlexandrite\u201d centers on Ruby, a young woman who is sexually assaulted by the town\u2019s pastor and later put on trial for being a witch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cIt deals with taking power back and what happens when a person\u2019s power has been stripped away,\u201d Pipkin said. \u201c\u2019OTHERWORLD\u2019 is the total opposite of \u2018ALEXANDRITE.\u2019 The play takes place in a fun, interactive nightclub environment. It\u2019s like a children\u2019s musical for adults, and it covers the journey of a fantasy club world.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Pipkin also earned an $8,000 scholarship to attend the Theatermakers Summer Intensive.

This department gave me the tools I needed to pursue such opportunities to practice my craft.

during a Nov. 4 ceremony at the Clinton Presidential Center.<span id=\"more-79663\"><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dr. Jaafer Golzar, a cardiologist and chief medical officer for <a href=\"https:\/\/avinger.com\/\">Avinger, Inc<\/a>., will receive the Distinguished Alumnus Award. Helaine Williams, Sunday Style editor at the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.arkansasonline.com\/\">Arkansas Democrat-Gazette<\/a>, will receive the Presidents Award.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cDr. Golzar and Mrs. Williams are examples of the very best of UA Little Rock,\u201d said Kristi Smith, senior director of alumni and development at UA Little Rock. \u201cHe was a traditional student from the Historic Little Rock Central High School, educated at UAMS, and has made an indelible mark in interventional cardiology, while she returned to complete her education while creating a name for herself in journalism. As a graduate of the university myself, it is my pleasure to showcase these outstanding alumni to Little Rock, the state, and beyond.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The UA Little Rock Alumni Association annually awards the Distinguished Alumnus Award to a Little Rock Junior College, Little Rock University, or UA Little Rock alumnus. The award is reserved for individuals who have achieved extraordinary distinction in their chosen field and made special contributions to the community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cMy experiences at UA Little Rock and the Donaghey Scholars program were paramount to the trajectory of my career, allowing me to succeed in my career,\u201d Golzar said. \u201cI am forever grateful for and will always treasure the relationships and opportunities this special place afforded me. I will continue to strive for excellence and to make a difference in the world, carrying this honor with me.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In addition to his position at Avinger, Golzar is an interventional cardiologist with Advocate Medical Group, the director of Limb Salvage and Endovascular Intervention at Advocate Trinity Hospital in Chicago, and a key opinion leader in the treatment of peripheral artery disease.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A native of India, Golzar moved to Little Rock with his family at age five. He is a 1991 graduate of Central High School, a 1995 graduate of UA Little Rock with a bachelor\u2019s degree in biology, and a 1999 graduate of the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">An interventional cardiovascular specialist with 15 years of experience, Golzar is board certified in internal medicine, cardiology, and interventional cardiology. He is also a leading educator on interventional techniques and technologies and the founder of the Chicago Endovascular Conference, the first large-scale medical educational conference in the Midwest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As a recognized leader in the endovascular community, Golzar has received multiple accolades including the prestigious Pioneers in Performance \u2013 North America Award in 2014. He is a fellow of the American College of Cardiology and the Society for Cardiovascular Angiography and Interventions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cAs a physician, clinical thought leader, and innovator, Dr. Golzar has been a critical contributor to all of the advancements we have made at Avinger,\u201d said Jeff Soinski, Avinger\u2019s president and CEO. \u201cMore than that, in his leadership role as our chief medical officer, Dr. Golzar inspires each of us to do our best to achieve our mission of radically improving the way vascular disease is treated. A mission he personifies in the work he does every day.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Golzar has also spent time volunteering in acute medical disaster relief efforts around the world, including serving as a consultant for Nigeria\u2019s efforts to reform the medical infrastructure of Ogun State.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Presidents Award was established to recognize UA Little Rock graduates who achieved success in their career, donated time and talents to their community, and remained in touch with their alma mater as a volunteer and resource person.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Helaine Williams is an icon in the Little Rock journalism industry with more than four decades of experience. She started her career as a city desk news assistant at the Arkansas Democrat in 1981. Williams is a 1980 graduate of Wilbur D. Mills University Studies High and UA Little Rock, where she earned a bachelor\u2019s degree in journalism in 2000.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI may be a so-called wordsmith. But to go from being a 1984 college dropout to finally finishing my degree in 2000 \u2013 and, 21 years after that, being chosen for the Presidents Award \u2013 evokes emotions I can\u2019t adequately describe,\u201d Williams said. \u201cI can only hope that I inspire someone who thinks it\u2019s too late for second chances, especially at a university I most heartily thank for giving me one.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In 1989, Williams became the principal writer of \u201cLet\u2019s Talk,\u201d a column she has called her own for the last 32 years. She has also written for the Active Style, Family, High Profile, Weekend and Style sections of the Democrat-Gazette, drawing numerous honors along the way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Williams was inducted into the Arkansas Writers Hall of Fame this year. She and her husband, Renarda \u201cDre\u201d Williams, are 2019 recipients of a John H. Johnson Journalism & Media Award by the Arkansas-based Friends of John H. Johnson Museum. Williams has also received honors from the National Association of Black Journalists and the Central Arkansas Association of Black Journalists for advocating and elevating the work of Black journalists.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In addition to her work with the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette, Williams is the president of The Umoja Network and founder of its subsidiary, Make it Plain Ministries. Through these organizations, she is able to share her skills and knowledge with others by providing invaluable assistance to new writers and authors working to get published, public relations-related consultations with organizations seeking to make positive impressions with their audiences, and guiding the content creation process for print materials.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">An active member of the community, Williams is a lifetime member of the UA Little Rock Alumni Association and served on its Board of Directors from 2013-2019.

She represents the best of UA Little Rock. Stuti\u2019s education has changed her. It has given her so much, and she has given so much back to the university and the larger community.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Chatterjee, a Donaghey Scholar from Bryant, earned the Whitbeck Award while double majoring in <a href=\"https:\/\/ualr.edu\/academics\/program\/undergraduate\/chemistry\/\">chemistry<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/ualr.edu\/academics\/program\/undergraduate\/biology\/\">biology<\/a> at UA Little Rock. After graduation, Chatterjee will be taking a gap year to work and to study for the Medical College Admission Test (MCAT) before going to medical school in the fall 2022 semester.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI think that medicine is one of those fields where you never stop learning,\u201d she said. \u201cIt\u2019s also one of the most giving fields. Showing empathy and compassion is something you don\u2019t get to do at all jobs.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While at UA Little Rock, Chatterjee worked with Dr. Noureen Siraj, assistant professor of chemistry, to study the use of nanodrugs for effective cancer cell therapies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI created a more non-invasive approach to treat cancer cells,\u201d Chatterjee said. \u201cUsually nanoparticles that are used to treat cancer are made out of gold. It works, but it\u2019s very expensive. We are looking for organic elements that can be exchanged for gold in nanoparticles.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Chatterjee has received two SURF (Student Undergraduate Research Fellowship) grants and three Signature Experience Awards from UA Little Rock to fund her research.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Her research project, \u201cTunable sized combination nanodrugs based on ionic materials,\u201d has earned Chatterjee a second place award at the Student Research and Creative Works Expo at UA Little Rock as well as an honorable mention for the INBRE (Idea Networks of Biomedical Research Excellence) Conference this year. She was also named the 2020 Outstanding Undergraduate Research Student for the Department of Chemistry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Even though she has received many accolades for her research on how to treat cancer using nanotechnology, Chatterjee is planning to specialize in pediatrics. A native of India, Chatterjee moved to Arkansas with her family when she was just 10 years old. Her father had received a job offer in Arkansas, and the move also provided the opportunity for better medical treatment for her brother, Sanidhya.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cMy brother had a brain hemorrhage when he was a child,\u201d she said. \u201cMy parents thought he would have a better chance for treatment in the U.S. That is another thing that made me want to go into medicine. It was a doctor\u2019s mistake that caused his hemorrhage, but it was also a doctor that fixed it. I saw firsthand the damage it can cause, but I also saw how that medical knowledge can be used to help someone.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Chatterjee also thanked her parents, Monish and Atima Chatterjee, for being a huge source of support as she finished her bachelor\u2019s degrees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI want to include my parents as role models who helped me succeed in college,\u201d she said. \u201cThey have supported me so much by calling me and bringing in food. They have made my life easier by helping me do what I need to do.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the healthcare field, Chatterjee also works with Dr. Meghan Wilson, a rehabilitation medicine physician at UAMS who has tetraplegia from a spinal cord injury. Chatterjee assists Dr. Wilson with daily activities as well as clinical work by writing notes, performing patient exams, and conducting rounds on patients.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cStuti is able to empathize and show compassion when needed but is also focused and gets things done in an efficient manner,\u201d Wilson said. \u201cShe asks questions about different diagnoses and is genuinely interested in my approach throughout the day. Her compassion and curiosity are what make her stand out from her fellow coworkers. Whether our team has 12 or 5 patients, Stuti is able to work with the same enthusiasm. She has also been kind and supportive when I have gone through difficult times, and I believe she has a genuine passion for helping others.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A firm believer in empowering women in STEM, Chatterjee volunteered with Girls of Promise while at UA Little Rock, though she has been an advocate for much longer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWhen I was in high school, there were no women in my robotics program,\u201d she said. \u201cI started my own all-girls robotics team. It seemed like a boys club, and I didn\u2019t want that to deter the girls from participating. We ended up going to the world competition.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">During her time at UA Little Rock, Chatterjee has also served on the Student Government Association and learned Python to code a camera to monitor the Arkansas River for a professor\u2019s research project. In healthcare, she worked as a research associate at UAMS. Her supervisor, Dr. Michael Wilson, hired her to copy edit his book, \u201cBehavioral Emergencies for the Healthcare Provider.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cLooking back at my achievements, I have been driven not only by my passion for science but by using that passion to give back to the community,\u201d Chatterjee said. \u201cThrough my involvement within various organizations and performing well in academics, I hope to inspire and pave the way for the future classes of UA Little Rock.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The impressive achievements of future doctor Stuti Chatterjee have earned her the honor of the 2021 Edward L.

on May 11. <span id=\"more-79076\"><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The new mural, entitled \u201cKoi,\u201d is eight feet wide and 16 feet long. Emma Chambers, the student artist who created the mural, hopes the peaceful painting of fish swimming in a koi pond will bring a sense of calm and tranquility to all who see it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cPreviously, I was struggling with grounding myself, especially during the pandemic,\u201d Chambers said. \u201cI lost my sense of place as I believe many of you also did. Meditating, looking at koi fish, and finding my inner peace were some things that helped me. I wanted to give that to other students by sharing my love of koi fish and giving everybody else a sense of place.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The mural is the result of the first campus-wide competition designed to honor and highlight the wonderful work of UA Little Rock\u2019s student artists.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Chancellor Christina Drale praised the mural as \u201cthe people\u2019s choice.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThis project is also special because it represents a unique collaboration that represents the best of who we are at UA Little Rock,\u201d Drale said. \u201cThis effort was so successful, and the results so marvelous, that I am encouraging the Building and Grounds Committee to continue the collaboration and make this an annual event.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The campus partners involved in the student mural competition and installation include the Student Government Association (SGA), the Buildings and Grounds Committee, Facilities Management, the Department of Art and Design, and Ottenheimer Library staff.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cMost of you probably know that koi are a type of carp fish bred for their vibrant colors,\u201d Drale said. \u201cYou see them frequently in garden ponds. What you might not know, and what Nancy Hamilton has graciously shared with me, is that in Japan, the koi is a symbol of prosperity and good fortune, but also of perseverance in the face of adversity. I have to say, I can\u2019t think of a better symbol for the year we\u2019ve been through than that. And what a wonderful testimony to the resilience of our students at UA Little Rock!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"204\" height=\"102\" src=\"https:\/\/ualr.edu\/donagheyscholars\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/141\/2021\/08\/image-204x102.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1326\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ualr.edu\/donagheyscholars\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/141\/2021\/08\/image-204x102.jpeg 204w, https:\/\/ualr.edu\/donagheyscholars\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/141\/2021\/08\/image-124x62.jpeg 124w, https:\/\/ualr.edu\/donagheyscholars\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/141\/2021\/08\/image-768x384.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/ualr.edu\/donagheyscholars\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/141\/2021\/08\/image-444x222.jpeg 444w, https:\/\/ualr.edu\/donagheyscholars\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/141\/2021\/08\/image-320x160.jpeg 320w, https:\/\/ualr.edu\/donagheyscholars\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/141\/2021\/08\/image-480x240.jpeg 480w, https:\/\/ualr.edu\/donagheyscholars\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/141\/2021\/08\/image-940x470.jpeg 940w, https:\/\/ualr.edu\/donagheyscholars\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/141\/2021\/08\/image-684x342.jpeg 684w, https:\/\/ualr.edu\/donagheyscholars\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/141\/2021\/08\/image-924x462.jpeg 924w, https:\/\/ualr.edu\/donagheyscholars\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/141\/2021\/08\/image.jpeg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 204px) 100vw, 204px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">SGA President Landon DeKay said the idea for a student mural competition originated with former SGA President Katie Zakrzewski in 2019. When DeKay began his presidency last fall, the SGA was determined to bring the student mural to fruition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cIt\u2019s been a very hectic school year, and we need something bright to lift our spirits. The mural is very beautiful,\u201d DeKay said. \u201cSGA wants to get students involved on campus. We are very excited to showcase student artwork around campus, and we hope to continue this tradition for years to come.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Chambers, a junior Bachelor of Fine Arts major with a concentration in painting, said it took two weeks to complete the mural. She received help from several of her professors in the Department of Art and Design, including Ricky Sikes, Peter Scheidt, and Kensuke Yamada. A patron from the library helped prime the mural, and her brother helped her paint.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe mural turned out very well,\u201d Chambers said. \u201cI have a whole new appreciation for teamwork. Painting is solitary, but I had no idea how many people were involved in the creation of a mural.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">-Angelita Faller<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The University of Arkansas at Little Rock dedicated a new student mural in the lobby of Ottenheimer Library during a ceremony on May 11.

\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This year\u2019s president of the Student Government Association not only captured the hearts and minds of the student body of the University of Arkansas at Little Rock, but her impressive achievements during her UA Little Rock career also earned her the 2020 Edward L. Whitbeck Memorial Award. <span id=\"more-76979\"><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Katie Zakrzewski, a <a href=\"https:\/\/ualr.edu\/donagheyscholars\/\">Donaghey Scholar<\/a> from North Little Rock, earned the top graduate award while double majoring in criminal justice and anthropology at UA Little Rock. In the fall, she will begin the criminal justice graduate program at UA Little Rock.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Frank L. and Beverly Whitbeck established the award in memory of their son, Edward Lynn Whitbeck, who was a senior at Little Rock University, the predecessor of UA Little Rock, at the time of his death in 1965. Each scholar receives a personalized plaque and a monetary award.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI still can\u2019t believe that I won,\u201d she said. \u201cA lot of my friends also applied, and I honest to God thought that one of my best friends won. This is pretty amazing!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dr. Richard Harper, dean of students, described Zakrzewski as an exceptional student leader with a strong record of service.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cAs advisor for SGA, she has been an asset to the organization and has used her skills to advocate for the student body, subsequently enhancing the student experience at UA Little Rock,\u201d Harper said. \u201cShe has tirelessly volunteered and coordinated numerous community service programs and events within each organization she has been involved in and is identified as one of our top student leaders at the university. I have no doubt she will continue these endeavors and make the global community a better place for all.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In addition to SGA, Zakrzewski also served as president of the Criminal Justice Society and president of the Anthropology Club. She helped restart the College Republicans group on campus and was vice president.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Zakrzewski said some people are surprised to learn that she is a conservative who advocates for climate change and environmental issues, which are considered liberal issues, but she\u2019s very passionate about helping the environment. In 2019, she interned with Audubon Arkansas to campaign for the passing of the Solar Access Bill.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cIn October of 2019, my efforts as a conservative concerned about the environment caught the attention of the bipartisan organization, Citizens Climate Lobby (CCL), who covered all of my expenses in order to travel to Washington, D.C. and lobby for United States House Resolution 763, calling for carbon pricing,\u201d she said. \u201cI personally met with U.S. Senator Cotton, U.S. Senator Boozman, and U.S. Congressman Hill to discuss bipartisan environmental solutions.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While she is active in multiple student organizations, Zakrzewski is also passionate about helping the community. She has volunteered with Habitat for Humanity, Big Brothers Big Sisters of Central Arkansas, Girls of Promise, Fair Park Early Childhood Center, Arkansas Hospice, St. Mary\u2019s Catholic Church, and Be the Match bone marrow drive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cKatie is passionate about climate change and works to help make changes on campus and on a larger scale,\u201d said Dr. Kathryn King, assistant professor of anthropology. \u201cAt UA Little Rock, she spearheaded a campaign to make student dining greener by introducing reusable materials and reducing the use of disposable plastics. Katie is active in the local community as well. Katie never shies away from service whenever she sees a need. She strives to make the lives of those around her better.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Last year, Zakrzewski had two opportunities to study abroad. She studied death in the Basque culture while studying abroad in San Sebastian, Spain. Additionally, she traveled to Morocco to compete in the International Model Arab League Conference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Zakrzewski has lived much of her life by the motto, \u201cBe the change you want to see.\u201d For future students to be successful, she said they must be active in making the world a better place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cIf you don\u2019t like the way something is, don\u2019t run away. Change it,\u201d she said. \u201cI\u2019m very much of the opinion that taking charge and working to fix things is key. If any student wants to be successful at UA Little Rock, they are going to have to get involved.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Angelita Faller, UA Little Rock Office of Communications<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This year\u2019s president of the Student Government Association not only captured the hearts and minds of the student body of the University of Arkansas at Little Rock, but her impressive achievements during her UA Little Rock career also earned her the 2020 Edward L.
