Krishnan, a senior studying business management, is one of four students to receive a Commission on the Status of Women Fellowship this year from the local non-profit organization WomenNC. Students who received this fellowship have the opportunity to attend and participate in the Commission on the Status of Women conference at the United Nations in 2016. Here, they will present the research they conduct on local women’s issues as part of their fellowship as well as attend meetings and discussions.
