CUE Student Ira Murray Garners CRSP Award

It’s with immense pride that we congratulate CUE doctoral student and K. Leroy Irvis Fellow Ira Murray, whose recent paper was awarded this year’s Doctoral Student Paper Award from the Center on Race and Social Problems. Murray’s paper, "Not as Much as It Should Be”: How Community-Based Outside of School Time Programs Attend to Black Male Sociopolitical Development,” started as a project for Dr. Amber Pabon’s qualitative methods class.

“I feel honored that people see potential in my work, particularly as a first-year grad student," Murray said. "I'm grateful that I have so much support from CUE and the School of Education."
