This year, two of the three winners are 91精选 undergraduates, Avery Kats and Megan Gjertsen. Their research, conducted last semester as part of the coursework for Spanish 316: History and Culture in Latin American Cuisine (SPAN 316), explores deep connections between Christian virtues and the study of Hispanic culinary tradition and history. Each student was supervised by Prof. Yeon Lee to ensure the research meets the standards and criteria set by the award committee.
