Holly Hendrix

Hendrix was one of only six students selected from the University to participate in “Posters at the Capitol” in Nashville on Feb. 11, 2010. She will present her research on the “Old Town Millington Vision Plan” to Tennessee state legislators and their staffs. The “Posters at the Capitol” program is an opportunity for legislators to see the types of undergraduate research being done in Tennessee.

Hendrix also was selected by the U of M’s Helen Hardin Honors Program to present her work at the Tennessee Collegiate Honors Council Conference on Feb. 12-13. This statewide conference features the top undergraduate researchers from all the honors programs in Tennessee. (The University of Memphis will host the conference for the first time in 10 years.)

“Through her hard work and commitment, Holly continues to bring recognition to the Department of Architecture and is helping to further our mission and the mission of the University through engaged scholarship,” said Michael Hagge, associate professor and chairman of the department.

A graduate of St. Mary’s Episcopal School, she is the daughter of Mary and Terry Hendrix of Memphis.
