The UC Davis History Department would like to congratulate PhD student Charlotte Hansen Terry on her appointment as Assistant Professor in U.S. history at Utah State University Uintah Basin campus starting this fall. She will complete her PhD. this spring. Her dissertation explores Mormon missionization efforts during the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries and responses to these efforts by Pacific Islanders and their governments, U.S. imperial agents, and other missionary organizations. She traces white Mormon and Pacific Islander attempts to define and expand racial, religious, familial, and national belonging. Congratulations Charlotte!
