History Department, University of Southern Indiana

Congratulations to our history graduates!

Twelve USI history majors were inducted into Phi Alpha Theta. Four other students received academic achievement awards from the department. Congratulations 🎉🎉

USI History Major Ainsley Ferguson showed five cadettes from Southwest Warrick County Girl Scout Troop 192 around USI and chatted with them about the college experience. Pictured here are Eliza, Lacie & Maren.

And that's a wrap on HIST 400 Journey to Justice, the class at least. More to come from these great students in the future no doubt!
