The College of Humanities and Social Sciences is proud to honor Anne McCabe, BA Economics '06, with the 2026 Distinguished Alumni Award in Latin American studies. McCabe has gone from Wall Street to entrepreneur. Before founding Curo Private Wealth in 2014, she spent a decade gaining Wall Street experience with Ameriprise Financial, UBS, and Wells Fargo.

As a first-generation college student with immigrant parents from El Salvador, navigating academia has been a challenge. It wasn't always easy, but it's been a rewarding and eye-opening journey. Now in my final year as an Anthropology major with a minor in Latin American Studies, I had the incredible opportunity to intern at the Co-Creative History Space.

Professor Lisa Gilman in the Department of English and Associate Professor Jennifer Ashley from the Global Affairs Program have received U.S. Fulbright Scholar Awards for the 2026-27 academic year.
