Arati Maleku, School of Social Work PhD student was honored last Thursday for her paper entitled “Does Female Literacy Reduce Maternal Mortality? Findings from a Latent Growth Curve Analysis”

The College of Liberal Arts presented the award at their ceremony that celebrates excellence for students, faculty, and staff in the awards across the College (not the individual departments). One of those awards is given annually by the Center for Women’s and Gender Studies: they have a mini-conference and the presentations are also given at ACES.
