Cyphert’s paper was titled “’No Gods or Kings, Only Man’: Ayn Rand’s Experiences in the Soviet Union as Inspiration for Anthem.” Haag presented “What a Piece of Work is Man: Mikhail Bulgakov’s Articulation of Human Nature from the NEP to the Stalinist Regime.” O’Brien-Britton spoke on “Theatre and Theatricality in The Master and Margarita.”

The students were mentored on their projects and accompanied to the symposium by Saint Mary’s faculty Dr. Erich Lippman, history, and Dr. Carolyn Ayers, English.
