Ethan Caldwell ’27 and Sofia Cipriano ’27 were selected as recipients of the 2023-24 Haarlow Prize from the Humanities Council’s Program in Humanistic Studies. The prize is awarded to students who deliver exceptional papers in a 200-level humanistic studies course during the academic year.
Caldwell, who is majoring in computer science, was recognized for his paper titled “The Two Trees,” which was submitted to HUM 216-217 in Fall 2023. Cipriano, who is majoring in English and minoring in Russian, East European and Eurasian studies, was awarded the prize for her paper “Comprehending the Incomprehensible: The Sensible and Intelligible in Socrates’ Sun Analogy,” which was also submitted to HUM 216-217 in Fall 2023.
The Haarlow prizes are awarded by the Program in Humanistic Studies in memory of the late A. William Haarlow III ’63, who cared deeply about humanistic studies. His generosity and that of his family have helped the program to flourish.
