Drexel’s Pennoni Honors College recently established the Teagle Civic Impact Award to honor student researchers for groundbreaking research that significantly contributes to the public good, and two College of Arts and Sciences students are the first recipients.

The award recognizes students who have participated in the STAR Scholars (Students Tackling Advanced Research) program, which is an opportunity for highly motivated first-year students to engage in an early faculty-mentored undergraduate research, scholarship or creative experience during the summer after their freshman year.

Selected from a pool of 20 applicants, psychology major Caitlin Betson and biological sciences major Chan Chung were selected for the award based on their impactful contributions to research.
