LETTER FROM THE EDITOR
Hello reader:
Welcome to the NURJ Online Vol. 6! This edition features articles that are the product of excellent undergraduate research. The authors of these submissions hold a variety of majors and backgrounds, with their writing an extension of their own interests. Each submission is paired with a brief biography of the researcher and a Q&A section that offers a glimpse into the origins, developments, and interests of these emerging scholars and their academic experiences.
As always, the NURJ stands by our mission to give all Northwestern undergraduates a space to showcase their research. Please reach out to the NURJ at eic@thenurj.com if you have any comments or suggestions. For information on submitting for future packages, visit our How to Submit tab.
Sincerely,
The NURJ Online
