Mary Clare Mulhern Presents 'Senior Novel' Project at the University of Dallas

2014 May 16

Mary Clare Mulhern of Phoenix, Ariz., was one of 37 University of Dallas senior English majors to present her capstone project, commonly referred to as "Senior Novel." These presentations are the culmination of intensive research and writing on a major English-language novel and are required of all senior English majors in order to satisfy degree requirements. Mulhern's presentation was on Jane Austen's "Persuasion."

The University of Dallas, a private Catholic institution in Irving, Texas, is considered one of the most academically rigorous small universities in America. It regularly appears on the "best colleges" lists of U.S. News & World Report, The Princeton Review and Forbes, and is one of only 22 schools nationwide to receive an "A" rating in the "What Will They Learn?" report on institutions that best prepare students for life beyond college. One of the university's flagship programs is its Rome Program, which operates from an international campus in the Roman countryside.
