Corinne Hobbs, a third-year Ph.D. student in the Department of Kinesiology, is the recipient of the MSU Council of Graduate Students COGS Diversity, Equity and Inclusion DEI Award. The award — now in its second year — recognizes graduate-level Spartans who exemplify and actively promote DEI by addressing, challenging or dismantling discrimination, sexism, racism and prejudice within their program, unit or department.
