BC and Brazoswood Dual Credit Students Participate in Gulf Coast Fall Semester Honors Conference
LAKE JACKSON — Three Brazosport College students were selected to present their BC Honors projects during the 2022 Gulf Coast Intercollegiate Consortium (GCIC) Fall Honors Conference at Lone Star College-Kingwood.
BC Honors program students presenting at the conference included 2019 Brazoswood graduate Alexander de Rivas and current Brazoswood Dual Credit students Erin Dy and Anastasia Heil.
De Rivas’ presentation was titled “Allied Perceptions and Misconceptions: The German Tiger 1 Tank in World War II European Warfare,” while Brazoswood senior Dy spoke on “Chinese Immigration in Nineteenth Century America: Opportunities and Opposition.” Senior Anastasia Heil’s presentation was titled “The Tragedy of Those Ruined by Society: A Psychosocial Analysis of ‘A Streetcar Named Desire.’”
The students were mentored by BC faculty members Dr. Shaun Clarkson (assisting Heil), Carrie Pritchett (assisting Dy) and Dr. Chad Lower (assisting de Rivas).
The GCIC is a consortium of regional community colleges and includes several divisions, including honors, athletics and the arts. The GCIC Honors Council brings honors students together every year for a Fall undergraduate’s research conference and a spring honors retreat. The purpose of the annual GCIC Fall conference is to encourage and promote student presentations and publication. The 2022 GCIC Fall Honors Conference was held on Oct. 21 at the Lone Star College-Kingwood’s Student Conference Center.
