For my ethnographic fieldwork (2015-2017), I studied the experience of women and gender non-conforming individuals (GNCIs) in the criminal justice system in São Paulo, Brazil through an interdisciplinary approach, building on literatures from anthropology, women and gender studies, and prison studies in the U.S. and in Brazil.&nbsp;Taking Dr. Deepti Misri's courses <em>Feminist Theories</em> and <em>Gender, Violence, and Representation</em> provided me with the theoretical and practical tools to carry out this type of research. Additionally, Dr. Bayard de Volo's guidance in feminist methodologies gave me with the research tools I needed to conduct multi-sited research with a range of interlocutors across distinct and intersecting, political, gender, race, and class identities. Especially, as I wrote the dissertation, I would often return to what Dr. Bayard de Volo had stressed--the significance of my subject position, the type of knowledge I brought to issues of gendered violence in a context like Brazil, and that the emotions I'd experience during fieldwork and post-fieldwork were all part of the process of&nbsp;knowledge production and not a hindrance as I had initially interpreted. I am also superbly grateful to my committee members Dr. Bayard de Volo&nbsp;and Dr. Robert Buffington, the care and respect they showed my scholarship and the insightful critiques I received to improve my dissertation's arguments. I was recently awarded "Best Dissertation in the Social Sciences" by the Brazil section of the Latin American&nbsp;Studies Association.

In her application, Madison writes “I knew that I would be alone in my vulnerable kneeling position, but I also knew what I could be representing and participating in: a large social activist movement in efforts to aid minorities in society.” She did decide to take a knee, and found support from her teammates and competitors alike. “I like to think that my seemingly small action of kneeling impacted the movement it represented even in the smallest way, but if not, it impacted a smaller group: of me and other black women who also stood on the line before the race.” </p><div class="image-caption image-caption-left"><p> </p><div class="imageMediaStyle medium_750px_50_display_size_"> <img loading="lazy" src="/wgst/sites/default/files/styles/medium_750px_50_display_size_/public/article-image/mboreman.jpg?itok=q6N9Uqkw" width="750" height="883" alt="Madie Boreman"> </div> <p>Madison Rose Boreman</p></div> <div class="ucb-box ucb-box-title-hidden ucb-box-alignment-none ucb-box-style-fill ucb-box-theme-white"> <div class="ucb-box-inner"> <div class="ucb-box-title"></div> <div class="ucb-box-content"> <div class="align-right image_style-medium_750px_50_display_size_"> <div class="imageMediaStyle medium_750px_50_display_size_"> <img loading="lazy" src="/wgst/sites/default/files/styles/medium_750px_50_display_size_/public/article-image/buchanan_lucile_berkeley120.jpg?itok=qAG2Hdhi" width="750" height="938" alt="Lucile"> </div> </div> <strong>The Lucile Berkeley Buchanan Scholarship</strong> is given annually in honor of Lucile Berkeley Buchanan, the first black woman to ever graduate from the 51Թ, awarded to a student who demonstrates a commitment towards social justice and who may be the first generation in their family to attend college.

Our faculty chose Karina for this award for truly exemplifying inclusive,&nbsp;conscientious, and intersectional feminist leadership. As our students know, leadership takes many forms beyond traditional and hegemonic models. While traditional models may look for the loud booming voice dominating the masses, other models are quieter and more subtle, leading more by example and service. For several years, Karina has been part of a small group of students dedicated to confronting gender and sexual discrimination on our campus and in our country. This is a passionate group and she has played a pivotal role in making the Gender Justice League both a vanguard of activism and a much-needed space of mutual support. Again and again, she exhibited poise and compassion as a leader, listening empathetically to the views of other members to find shared goals and commitments. Equally impressive, Karina provided this leadership in an understated way while never diluting her own principles or beliefs. Beyond her work in the Gender Justice League, she is also a leader on campus in bringing a critical feminist perspective to environmental issues, including outdoor sports.</p><div class="ucb-box ucb-box-title-hidden ucb-box-alignment-none ucb-box-style-fill ucb-box-theme-white"> <div class="ucb-box-inner"> <div class="ucb-box-title"></div> <div class="ucb-box-content"> <div class="align-right image_style-medium_750px_50_display_size_"> <div class="imageMediaStyle medium_750px_50_display_size_"> <img loading="lazy" src="/wgst/sites/default/files/styles/medium_750px_50_display_size_/public/article-image/joarnold120.jpg?itok=l72pGSRv" width="750" height="938" alt="Jo Arnold"> </div> </div> <p><strong>The</strong><strong>Joanne Easley Arnold Outstanding Senior Award</strong> is named in honor of a professor emerita of the School of Journalism and Mass Communication at the 51Թ, for her long-term support of Women and Gender Studies.
