On May 9, Kevin Wang, economics and political science undergrad, was honored at the UCI Upper-Division Writing Awards Ceremony as the Excellent Academic Writing in Social Sciences award recipient. The honor recognizes him for research which calls into question Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia’s application of textualism in administering judicial interpretation.

Wang is a senior at UCI. He is an active member of Mock Trial and plans to attend law school after completing his bachelor’s degree.
