Loyola Student Testimonial: "Participating in the MMLA Undergraduate Symposium helped me find the fun in academic writing. I got to choose a book I love and an angle I'd found while reading for pleasure. The process was freeing; I got to make the essay my own." —Noah Rees-Clausen
Loyola Student Testimonial: “In taking the Newberry Seminar, I was exposed to many aspects of the research process including working with primary sources, collaboration with librarians, learning how to ask the right questions, and most importantly to me, learning how to allow histories within the artifacts to speak for themselves. This Seminar shaped research projects that I am working on now, and inspired me to continue work in the field and pursue post undergrad education.” —Charlie Vigil
