It was created by Richard Turrell\u2014a dedicated long-term member and former chairman of the Board of Trustees\u2014in memory of his son, Doug. At the time of his tragic passing at age 27, Doug was a graduate student in our history department.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For over three decades, this endowment has honored Doug\u2019s memory by supporting students who share his passion for the humanities. The Turrell Scholarship is designed to bolster students who are committed to the study of Philosophy. To qualify, students must pursue either a major or minor in philosophy, and maintain a cumulative GPA of 3.0 or higher.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Holmes follows in the footsteps of previous dedicated scholars, like Jocelyn Marsh (2022\u201323) and Amanda Keighron (2023\u201325), showcasing the continued strength of our philosophy program.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Please join us in congratulating Holmes on this well-deserved achievement!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:32px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"alumni-news\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Alumni News<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">During their whirlwind trip to Europe this spring, <strong>Richard Adamczyk<\/strong> \u201918 \u201919M proprosed to his long time love, Mariellen Bollock, in the Alps of Gornergrat, Zermatt, Switzerland.

His extensive research spans the complexities of Nigerian federalism, the political identity of the Middle Belt, and the cultural resilience of Rwanda. By bridging the gap between local narratives and international discourse, his work provides a vital theoretical framework for understanding governance, identity, and the lingering effects of colonial legacies across the continent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Beyond his academic rigor, Adekunle is a dedicated mentor and community leader who has shaped the next generation of scholars at Monmouth University. His legacy is defined by a unique intersection of disciplines, combining his expertise in history and anthropology with a passion for creative poetry and spiritual leadership. Whether through his editorial contributions or his advocacy for the African diaspora, he remains a steadfast voice for unity, integrity, and the social progress of African nations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"melissa-a-brzycki-phd-distinguished-teacher-award-2026-recipient\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Melissa A.

From the ashes of World War II emerged a period of revolution, and this book guides readers through the intricate web of events, ideologies and personalities that defined it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Starting with the post-war period that set the scene for the 1960s, it then turns to the high-stakes rivalry of the Cold War, the countercultural movements and sexual revolution that redefined societal norms, the worldwide anti-war protests that ignited change, anti-colonial struggles and independence movements across the globe, and the complex relationship between environmental awareness and modern consumerism. Without neglecting the key developments associated with the West, the book will give significant treatment, among other topics, to the Chinese Cultural Revolution, the Arab-Israeli conflict in the Middle East, the struggle of African nations for independence, the impact of the Cold War on nonaligned nations, and key developments in Latin America. This survey provides a holistic understanding of a decade that reverberates in contemporary culture and continues to impact our world today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"katherine-parkin-phd\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Katherine Parkin, Ph.D.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:1rem\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1021\" height=\"542\" style=\"object-position: 59.047% 42.928%\" src=\"https:\/\/www.monmouth.edu\/department-of-history-and-anthropology\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/525\/2026\/07\/image_48.jpeg\" alt=\"Woman speaking at podium during event, audience at tables applauding.\" class=\"wp-image-40802222546\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.monmouth.edu\/department-of-history-and-anthropology\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/525\/2026\/07\/image_48.jpeg 1021w, https:\/\/www.monmouth.edu\/department-of-history-and-anthropology\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/525\/2026\/07\/image_48-300x159.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.monmouth.edu\/department-of-history-and-anthropology\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/525\/2026\/07\/image_48-768x408.jpeg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1021px) 100vw, 1021px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Katherine Parkin, Ph.D., Jules Plangere Endowed Chair in American Social History and professor in the department of History and Anthropology, recently received two prestigious awards at the <a href=\"https:\/\/thebhc.org\/2026-bhc-meeting\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Business History Conference<\/a> in London, England.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Parkin earned the 2025 Ralph Gomory Prize for her book, \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.pennpress.org\/9781512828207\/the-abortion-market\/\">The Abortion<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pennpress.org\/9781512828207\/the-abortion-market\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Market: Buying and Selling Access in<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pennpress.org\/9781512828207\/the-abortion-market\/\">the Era Before Roe<\/a>,\u201d and the 2025 Philip Scranton Prize, for the article, \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cambridge.org\/core\/journals\/enterprise-and-society\/article\/business-of-abortion-referral-services-crossborder-consumption-and-canadian-womens-access-to-abortion-in-new-york-state-19701972\/195421D9570E49E8A2DF964056559A34#article\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">The Business of Abortion: Referral Services, Cross-Border Consumption, and Canadian Women\u2019s Access to Abortion in New York State, 1970-1972,<\/a>\u201d which was co-authored with Sarah Elvins, Ph.D., from the University of Manitoba, and published in Enterprise and Society.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to the prize committee, members were \u201cextremely impressed by both the concept and execution\u201d of \u201cThe Abortion Market.\u201d They also praised the accompanying article for its \u201coriginality, conceptual clarity, and exemplary integration of business history with the histories of consumption, gender, and the state.\u201d The committee also noted that the article \u201cstood out immediately for the precision of its argument and the sophistication with which it situates entrepreneurial activity,\u201d&nbsp; adding that it, \u201cis a model of how business history can engage with urgent historical questions without sacrificing analytical rigor.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In addition to these honors, \u201cThe Abortion Market\u201d was named a finalist for the organization\u2019s Hagley Prize.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Parkin presented the <a href=\"https:\/\/new.sewanee.edu\/programs-of-study\/history\/news-events\/goodstein-lecture-26\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">2026 Anita S.

The effects of Ken\u2019s teaching and mentorship reverberate across campus in the classroom and advising sessions held by some of the University\u2019s most dynamic teachers and advisors. Once students, now colleagues, Ken\u2019s legacy is written in the lesson plans of many in our department, and elsewhere on campus. For my part, Ken offered a tremendous wealth of guidance in how to navigate complicated and intense situations with calm and diplomacy.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-right wp-block-paragraph\">\u2014<strong>Maryanne Rhett<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;I first met Ken Campbell in 1995, when he hired me to teach two sections of Western Civilization in World Perspective at Monmouth. It proved to be the beginning of a beautiful friendship. As, first, department chair of History and Anthropology, then Associate Dean, and in his return to the department Ken has always been a guiding and nurturing mentor. He encouraged and inspired me to be a better teacher, unsparing in his praise of what he saw me do well. At the same time, Ken did not hold back in critiquing my performance, but his advice was always given in the gentlest of terms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A foundation of our friendship has been the shared field of early modern British history. Ken has made significant contributions to the field with a well-received studies of English papists and separatists in the seventeenth century. He has also served as a patient sounding board and editor of my own writing. Our shared interests led us to put together panels and present papers at conferences across the United States. Those conferences offered great opportunities, of course, to strengthen scholarly pursuits, but they also provided a way to strengthen a friendship outside Monmouth. I came to know Ken as intellectually curious, a great raconteur, and a kindhearted man.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Apart from the academic world, there have been trips to baseball games, the US Open, restaurants across New Jersey, a Blood, Sweat &amp; Tears concert, and a memorable trip to traffic court in Newark. In each setting Ken made the outings fun-filled with his keen-edged wit, joie de vivre, and affability. There is so much I owe to Ken Campbell \u2013 from starting me on my chosen career to his always valuable advice and steady friendship. I shall miss him sorely around the halls of Monmouth, but I wish him well on his retirement.
