Clas awards eight graduate assistantships in writing, editing, engagement.
By Charlotte Brookins
The College of Liberal Arts and Sciences has awarded eight assistantships to graduate students in the areas of writing, editing, community engagement, and marketing and community in the performing arts.
These positions, part of a pilot project, provide doctoral students unique opportunities to participate in the college’s outreach, engagement, and writing missions in ways designed to diversify and transform graduate career preparation.
Iowa Summer Writing Festival
Hailey Kingsbury , a third year Doctor of Audiology candidate and incoming president of the National Student Speech Language Hearing Association for the 2023-2024 school year, received the 2023 Iowa Summer Writing Festival graduate assistantship. In this position, Kingsbury will support the Iowa Summer Writing Festival, which is administered by the UI Magid Center for Writing.
“I am passionate about my field [audiology], but I am excited to diversify my graduate experience,” says Kingsbury in her application. “I am confident in my ability to create a collaborative and memorable Iowa Summer Writing Festival and would be honored to work with such a renowned writing program and community.”
Iowa Sciences Academy
CLAS awarded two new Iowa Sciences Academy assistantships for the coming term, in addition to renewing one graduate student for a second year. These assistantships will take place during the 2023-2024 academic year.
Kingsbury, listed above, received one assistantship, and will join second-year physics and astronomy PhD candidate Jacob Payne and third-year PhD candidate in biology, evolution, and ecology Briante Najev , who was renewed for the position.
Payne is highly experienced in physics, engineering, and astronomy and says he looks forward to providing other students with opportunities to put their shared passion to work.
“With the Iowa Sciences Academy courses, I hope to empower students and to learn mentorship skills through practice. This assistantship will allow me to hear from students with different backgrounds, dreams, and career goals,” Payne explains in his application.
Returning to the position for the second year is Najev, who specializes in ecology and evolution. Having published several works in various journals over the years, Najev is especially excited about the writing experience this position will continue to provide.
“I believe that this graduate assistantship will provide major benefits for my future. Creating seminars, editing scientific articles, and polishing my (and others’) professional development skills are powerful ways of internalizing and teaching a suite of important tools,” Najev says.
Magid Center for Writing
Alyssa “Adare” Smith , a second-year PhD candidate in English was renewed for her assistantship with the Magid Center for Writing . Smith will continue with promotional and outreach work for the center.
“I am passionate about providing and advocating for accessibility, and this assistantship is in line with those values. This opportunity is uniquely positioned to teach me more about the services of the university and will allow me to easily network with like-minded individuals who are dedicated to positively impacting our campus community,” Smith explains.
Performing arts marketing and communications
Bronwyn Stewart , a second-year English PhD candidate, received an assistantship working in marketing and communications for the performing arts units in the college. Stewart, who is experienced in marketing, communications, and theatre, hopes to continue working in performing arts post-graduation.
“After finishing my dissertation, I hope to continue with performance, whether that be in academic settings or at a performance venue,” Stewart says. “I thoroughly enjoy writing and developing new ways to engage people and invite them to participate in the performing arts.”
Academic editing
Two graduate students received editing assistantships to help faculty in their work with highly prestigious academic journals.
Emily Wieder , a third-year PhD candidate in French and francophone world studies, received an editorial assistantship with Dance Research Journal , a peer-reviewed journal of scholarly articles and book reviews published by Cambridge University and co-edited by UI Department of Dance Director Rebekah Kowal .
“For Dance Research Journal, I look forward to performing more of the reviewing and corresponding tasks that my supervisors have done,” Wieder says. “Those skills will be necessary when I become a professor, as I will write articles and eventually serve on editorial boards.”
Derick Juptner , a second-year PhD candidate in anthropology, will assist Margaret Beck, professor of anthropology, in her work with the leading publication Journal of Archeological Method and Theory .
“Overall, I believe the assistantship is a great opportunity for me to improve my skills related to research and publishing, and one that will allow me to support my students and peers during future academic endeavors,” Juptner explains.
Each assistantship is a 50 percent award, or 20-hours per week, and is available only to graduate students pursuing a doctorate in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences.

Crossing the stage at Aberdeen University to collect a doctorate in English is a journey Sarinah O'Donoghue never thought she’d make.
Crossing the stage to collect a doctorate in English is a journey Sarinah O’Donoghue never thought she’d make.
The 28-year-old from Aberdeen, who is autistic, struggled to settle at school.
She had to self-study other qualifications to make up for those she missed during her disrupted education.
“I started out at Hazlehead Academy, but I didn’t know I was autistic,” said Sarinah, who was diagnosed with autism aged 20.
“My teachers at the time didn’t understand me or know how to help.
“This caused behavioural problems which got me excluded from school.
“I then moved to Torry Academy when I was 14 – so the beginning of S3 – where I was valued for my strengths.
“I managed to go from exclusion to achieving five Highers.”
She made it to Glasgow University to study English Literature at undergraduate level, but again struggled to find an environment that suited her.
During her fourth year things began to unravel, and she left without a degree and wondering if her university dreams were over.
By the time I started at Glasgow University I was already experiencing some mental health problems, and the environment wasn’t right which exacerbated things further.
“By the time I got to my fourth year I was very unwell and took a year out.”
Driven on by her love of books and determination to succeed, Sarinah transferred to Aberdeen University to complete her final year.
“I came to Aberdeen University thinking ‘just get your dead down and away from uni’, but I absolutely loved it,” she said.
“So much so that once I had graduated with my undergraduate degree I didn’t want to leave and began a PhD immediately.
“I just fitted in and the whole department was so supportive – the staff were just amazing.
“By the end of my undergraduate studies I’d won prizes for my work, including the dissertation prize, and I was awarded the Lucy Fellowship which enabled me to do my PhD here.”
Having faced difficulties throughout her educational journey, Sarinah understands the importance of the right environment, and she made vlogs of her PhD journey and produced tips for those studying from home during the pandemic to support others.
“I think everyone who starts a PhD has a degree of imposter syndrome,” she added.
“When you’re an undergraduate student you think of those taking doctorates as the pinnacle of academic success and as people who have their stuff together at all times.
“Then when you are in that position you realise it’s far from the truth!
“I wanted to document my journey to help people realise that becoming a doctor of academia isn’t an impossible pursuit. I am the proof of that.”
Sarinah’s PhD research focused on representations of autism in literature and popular culture, and she hopes her work will contribute to changing perceptions and attitudes about what autism is and who it affects.
“Autistic people often feature in stories, films or TV series, but rarely do they have control of the narrative,” she says.
“We cannot study autism only through the lens of medicine, psychology, or science – writing, performance and the arts directly shape societal attitudes.
“I also know from personal experience that this can be a powerful tool for self-advocacy.”
Sarinah is now working for Autism and Neurodiversity North Scotland (A-ND) in Aberdeen. She hopes to use her research and experience to input into policy which could shape change at a national level.

The CONCEPT Graduate Research Prize was awarded to graduate English student Sarah Gregory '24 MA for her paper, "In a Mirror Clearly: Narrative-based Interventional and Restorative Possibilities in There There ."
VILLANOVA, Pa. - This spring, graduate students, faculty and staff in the Villanova University College of Liberal Arts and Sciences celebrated the launch of 47 th edition of CONCEPT , the interdisciplinary scholarly journal of CLAS graduate students. The CONCEPT Graduate Research Prize was awarded to graduate English student Sarah Gregory '24 MA for her paper, "In a Mirror Clearly: Narrative-based Interventional and Restorative Possibilities in There There ."
Gregory, who will enter the PhD program at the University of Delaware in the fall, appreciated the opportunity to engage with others other than her professors through the CONCEPT experience. “It was nice to engage with other disciplines, peers, faculty editors on some feedback and be able to look at my writing from another angle,” she said. “That was extremely valuable.”
CLAS Graduate Studies Dean Emory Woodard, PhD, hosted the CONCEPT Recognition Ceremony on April 19, which featured a discussion with Faculty Managing Editor John Kurtz, PhD, and other faculty editors, as well as student authors, editors and peer reviewers about all areas of the CONCEPT process. The ceremony took place in the Connelly Cinema, followed by a cocktail reception in the Grad Center Student Lounge.
CONCEPT author and current Human Resource Development student Paige Matzerath, who is also the CLAS Assistant Director of Professional Development, talked about her research in the HRD Corner blog . In work, she explored the values of Generation Z and how those values influence their fit in the traditional working world.
The 2024 issue of CONCEPT includes papers from graduate students in English, Education, History, Human Resource Development, Political Science and Psychology. The journal seeks to honor and highlight not only exemplary papers within their respective disciplines but also scholarship with wide interdisciplinary appeal. It is published in partnership with the Office of Graduate Studies and Falvey Memorial Library.
