Posted by: admin


History in the Making Cover 2018

History in the Making: A Journal of History, CSUSB's student-run journal won Third Prize in the 2018 Gerald D. Nash graduate print journal national competition.  The journal, which is made up of research papers, travel pieces, reviews, and various other articles from undergraduate and graduate students and alum, is an annual publication of CSUSB's Alpha Delta Nu Chapter of Phi Alpha Theta.  This issue was overseen by faculty advisors Dr. Jeremy Murray and Dr. Tiffany F. Jones, and sponsored by the history department and Instructionally Related Programs at CSUSB.While the journal has won five previous awards in the undergraduate competition, due to the fact that many graduate students from the MA in Social Sciences participated in the journal, along with many undergraduate history students, this is the first year the journal was entered into the graduate level competition.  We are exceptionally proud of the work completed by the two chief editors, Athahn Steinback and Lark Winner, and the dedication and diligence of the editorial board, Alexander Serrano, Andrew Richter, Byron Williams, Danny Cervantes, Eric Lowe, Hannah Norton, Jacqulyne Anton, Jasmine Colorado, Jordan Hammon, Kyle Burke, Martin Votruba, Samuel Briseno, and Sarah Slawson.  Copy editors were Brittnie 'Bunny' Anglin, Jacqulyne Anton, Jasmine Colorado, Jordan Hammon, and Martin Vortruba.  This year's journal contained a diverse array of articles and reviews that reflects the global focus of our program.
