Congratulations to Dr. Gille on being named for this prestigious award. Each year, the Illinois Program for Research in the Humanities names a select few faculty members as fellows in order to facilitate their research and writing. This year's theme was "The Global and Its Worlds."

Dr. Gille's research emulates the theme of this year's fellowship perfectly as it focuses on the intersection of transnational sociology, environmental sociology, and the sociology of consumption. For more information about Dr. Gille, her work, and publications, please visit her profile page.
