The UGA Career Center surveys students, asking to identify faculty and staff who have made a significant, positive impact on their career-making process. As a result, four Comparative Literature individuals have been recognized by Class of 2020 graduates. These faculty/staff include Dr. Mi-Ryong Shim, Dr. Hyangsoon Yi, Dr. Karin Myhre and Mr. Willy C. Du. It is with great pleasure that we take this opportunity to acknowledge the impact these individuals have had on the career success of UGA students.

We are delighted to announce that our recent PhD graduate Sabnam Ghosh has just joined Kennesaw State University as a Limited Term Assistant Professor in English. Sabnam graduated with her PhD in Comparative Literature from University of Georgia in May 2020. Along with her major degree she also completed a certificate in Women's Studies, Portfolio in Service Learning and Portfolio in Teaching at UGA.

Congratulations to Gabriel Ayoola, a PhD graduate and Graduate Teaching Assistant in Comparative Literature, who has accepted a position at University of Michigan, Ann Arbor. He will be responsible for building their Yoruba Program and teaching African Literature and other content courses.
