Investor Behavior In The Midst Of A Global Pandemic, Abigail N. Bates

Honors Projects

Under those circumstances, we must work toward positive change by doing away with such inequities …

The Criterion Collection, Mackenna Finley
Honors Projects
The Criterion Collection is an examination of truth in fiction and poetry. The goal of this project is not to create truth that is absolute, but instead to allow for the experience of its subjectivity.
