A standing-room-only crowd of friends, parents, siblings, instructors, and other well-wishers congratulated the winners of the 24th annual Women’s and Gender Studies awards contests on March 15 at the Hefter Conference Center. The ceremony featured winners of the UWM Undergraduate and Graduate Student Paper and Project Contest, the Milwaukee Public Schools’ Wisconsin Women Making History contest, and, for the first time this year, the Casey O’Brien Outstanding Activist Award.
