You don’t just “learn a little about a lot.” You read, think, write, argue, change your mind, and shape your unique view of the world. You constantly discover.

Chelsey Bryant Krug AEROSPACE ENGINEER. WITH A REACH THAT STRETCHES AS FAR AS PLUTO. Physics major , Class of 2001 Currently the production manager for the Laboratory for Atmospheric and Space Physics (LASP), Chelsey Bryant Krug began her post-graduate project at LASP in 2002. The payoff came in 2015, when the New Horizons spacecraft carrying her work completed its journey to Pluto. And that isn’t all; her portfolio includes projects that have launched to study Earth's atmosphere, the moon, the sun, and Mars. Anna Ragni STUDIES OUR PAST TO UNDERSTAND OUR PRESENT Sociology/Anthropology major , Class of 2012 In pursuing a Ph.D. in Comparative Biology at the American Museum of Natural History, Anna Ragni gets to focus on her passions: human origins and primate evolution. By studying elements of the fossil record, she’s learning more about the evolution of locomotion among primates–including why humans move the way we do today. Nathan Thomas WATSON FELLOW. ENTREPRENEUR FOR EDUCATION. Anthropology/Sociology major, Class of 2010 For his Hendrix Odyssey, he explored ways to improve third-graders’ test scores in Forrest City. As a Watson Fellow, he visited three continents to study educational philosophy. Now, Nathan Thomas lives his passion for learning by developing the Clinton Foundation’s K-12 educational programs. And when he’s not doing world-changing work for that global nonprofit, he’s volunteering with TEDxMarkhamSt, the Arkansas Association for Black Professionals, and Create Little Rock. Daniel Ellis BRINGS OPERAS TO LIFE. Psychology major with a Theatre Arts minor, Class of 1996 There’s new ground to be broken in the way classic operas are staged, and Daniel Ellis is part of the excavation crew.
