NTCC scholars maintain enviable record at Texarkana conference
As in 2023 and 2024, NTCC scholars performed admirably in the Red River Symposium, hosted again by Texas A&M Texarkana, 20 May 2025. It was the third poster and oral-presentation conference chaired by the founding dean of the honors college at Texarkana, Dr. Craig Nakashian. There were four categories of presenters, and NTCC scholars won $100-first-place-awards in three. Gracie Gray, one of the students in a special research class in biology took first-place in the poster division for STEM fields. Stephanie Hernandez won the oral presentation area with her work on parasites in Black Buffalo fish. Mary-Faith Wilson placed first in the poster division of the humanities with her work on cowboy conservation in the novels of Elmer Kelton, and Larry McMurtry.
