George Mason University

The Atlantic recently covered the work of a class taught by Mills Kelly, director of the Global Affairs Program at George Mason University. Students in HIST 389-009: [Lying About The Past] created elaborate historical hoaxes using Wikipedia and other popular web tools.

The College of Humanities and Social Sciences recognized the 14 student winners of the 2012-2013 Dean’s Challenge Award, which recognizes exceptional students for their work in and out of the classroom.

Among the 7,700 students who will graduate from Mason this year are some special people who have great stories to tell. Kevin Loker (anthropology), Marshall "Britt" Wright (communication), Leslie Cook (government and international politics) and Andrew Pedry (religious studies, history) are four of them.
