Hudson, Wis. / River Falls
Junior dancer, Cece Purfeerst, earns her first individual Fleur-de-lis Award in her time at St. Catherine as one of three students selected to present at the MPCC Scholars at the Minnesota State Capitol on February 25. The event highlighted impactful research conducted by students across Minnesota's private colleges and universities and shared with members of the public, policymakers, faculty, staff, and students. Purfeerst's research was titled "Growing Up By The Book: How Adolescent Guidebooks Story Girls' and Boys' Bodies," working with Dr. Rebecca Busanich in the Exercise and Sports Science Department.
