Congratulations to Susan Mintzberg Winner of the Principal's Prize for Public Engagement

The School of Social Work is delighted to congratulate Susan Mintzberg PhD Candidate, who was selected as the Graduate Student winner of the Principal's' Prize for Public Engagement for 2021. Since the onset of the pandemic Susan has been actively speaking out about myriad of social issues closely tied to her own doctoral work such as our continued failure to recognize families as experts in the health of their relatives, and the problematic results of top down decision making . While her engagement has included participation in webinars and public lectures, her outstanding contributions in the production of thought provoking Opinion Editorials and live media interviews on senior care, education, and religious diversity are what stood out to the committee as exceptional.

The awards ceremony took place on April 13, 2021 and can be viewed here: https://www.youtube.com/c/mcgilluniversity/videos?app=desktop
