FACULTY SPOTLIGHT

 

Sarah Davis-Secord, PhD

Associate Professor

Department of History


Sarah Davis-Secord is spending the year as a Scholar at the Institute for Advanced Study (IAS) in Princeton, New Jersey and we were recently given an update on her time there. IAS Scholars in medieval studies meet regularly to discuss their latest research, and a recent seminar she gave was featured on their Instagram page. Davis-Secord's research argues that Muslim-Christian interaction and exchange has been a primary constructive element in the history of medieval Sicily and the central Mediterranean.
