On our Season 4 finale, we're joined by Holly Hurlburt, associate dean of the University College's Academic Enrichment Programs, to discuss the many high-impact experiences (HIEs) available to NC State students. HIEs are a fundamental part of an NC State education, helping students live out the latter half of our Think and Do motto. From traditional study-abroad opportunities and internships to Alternative Service Breaks and research, Pack members have many options to take what they have learned in the classroom and put it to use in the wider world — for their benefit and for the benefit of everyone around them. Hurlburt details the vital importance of these experiences and how Wolfpack donors and volunteers are helping make them possible. To learn more about HIEs and how you can empower NC State students to take part in them, visit go.ncsu.edu/experiences. If you would like to hear even more stories of Wolfpack success, subscribe to the NC State Philanthropy Podcast today via Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Stitcher or Podbean. Please leave a comment and rating as well to let us know how we're doing. Thanks for listening, and as always, go Pack! Transcript available here.
Caterina Corner lived a life that was composed of a mixture of adventure, power, and tragedy. The daughter of a Venetian patrician and merchant, she was married to the king of Cyprus while barely a teenager. Within two years of voyaging to her new home in 1472, she became a mother, a widow, and the ruler of Cyprus, over which she reigned until she was dethroned by her Venetian benefactors in 1489. In Daughter of Venice: Caterina Corner, Queen of Cyprus and Woman of the Renaissance (Yale University Press, 2015), Holly Hurlburt describes the life and artistic legacy of this remarkable woman. As she explains, much of our image of her is shaped by the portraits and other artwork of her, both from her reign and afterward. In combination with the extant documentary record, they reveal how Caterina maintained and projected her authority as queen in a tumultuous time while facing challenges from several Mediterranean powers. Ever after her removal to a community in northern Venice, she maintained her influence and dignity as the lady of Asolo, both as a noble landowner and as a Renaissance patron.
