SPOTLIGHT ON ACHIEVEMENT

Laura-Harris Gascogne, Fine Arts, Named Fulbright Scholar in tandem with a 2022 sabbatical. JCCC is the only Kansas institution to have a Fulbright Research Scholar recipient in 2020-2021. Gascogne, a ceramicist and a ceramic figurative sculptor, will take her expertise in terracotta sculpture to India for five months. Her end goal is to help the long tradition of terracotta sculpture-making survive in the state of West Bengal.

The Fulbright Program was created to increase mutual understanding between the people of the United States and the people of other countries. It is supported at JCCC through the International Education office, which offers opportunities to develop global awareness and learn about geo-political issues.
