Winner of Gilbert Prize for Best Paper on History of Global Conflicts and the Search for Peace

Keavy Hunnigal-Gaw
Undergraduate Keavy Hunnigal-Gaw won the newly established Marc Jason Gilbert Prize for Best Paper on the History of Global Conflicts and the Search for Peace. The paper was entitled “An Assessment of Finland’s System of Protection against Extremism during the Inter-War Period,” and Hunnigal-Gaw presented her research at the 32nd Annual Phi Alpha Theta Regional Meeting at Aloha Tower Marketplace in March. The topic—resisting extremism— remains as timely as ever. Gilbert, the holder of HPU’s NEH-supported Chair in World History, served as staff support for the only federally funded peace research during the Vietnam War, which ended 41 years ago in April.
