Gillian Miswardi '16 has been awarded the Annabelle Dixon Prize from Lucy Cavendish College at the University of Cambridge in the U.K. The prize, which commemorates the spirit of "generosity, collegiality, and intellectual curiosity" of its namesake, a former researcher at the school, is awarded each summer to students who have made the most of their time at the College. Miswardi has been studying abroad at Lucy Cavendish for the 2014/15 academic year.
