Student Accomplishment News: Past Prized Writing Student Gets Published in New Textbook
Authors of *The College Writer* will
include the article, "Our Roots Go Back to Roanoke: Investigating the
Link
between the Lost Colony and the Lumbee People of North Carolina," by
past UWP student, Renee Danielle Singh, in a new textbook, titled
*WRITE*, published by Heinle.
Singh's article was previously published in the 2005-2006 edition
of *Prized Writing*. It was then reprinted in *The College Writer*, edited
by Randall VanderMey, Verne Meyer, John Van Rys, and Pat Sebranek, and
published by Houghton Mifflin in 2009. The article, originally written as an essay
for an anthropology class, reviews research from linguistics,
genetics, history, and immunology to support a theory on what happened
to the lost colonists of Roanoke Island.
Singh is currently a 2nd-year doctoral student in the Department of
Counseling, Clinical, & School Psychology, at the Gevirtz Graduate
School of Education at the University of California, Santa Barbara.
