The Library would like to congratulate undergraduate, Janie Black, for winning the 2013 Student Research Excellence Award from the WSU Vancouver Library. Janie's paper, entitled Lascivious Pilgrims: Sexuality and Sexual Laws in the British Puritan New England Colonies during the 17th Century, and her accompanying essay displayed a sophisticated understanding of the library research process and was an excellent introduction to the subject matter of sexuality in 17th century New England. Congratulations, Janie!!
