With a dual major in international studies and sociology & anthropology, and a minor in humanitarian action, Jones’ capstone project, “Deconstructing Localization From a Decolonial Perspective,” is a call to action for humanitarian, development, and peace-building sectors to rethink how their organizations operate and respond to crises. A student-athlete on Fairfield’s volleyball team, Jones was an MLK Vision Award recipient in 2021.

Pfriem Civic Leadership Award, this year Dr. Crandall was named a national finalist for Campus Compact’s Thomas Ehrlich Civically Engaged Faculty Award.
