Dickinson
Alumnae Sora Park ’07 has won a 2013 Fellowship on
Women and Policy at SUNY Albany and will be working for Assemblywoman Barbara
Clark for the 2013 legislative session. Sora is a first year PhD student
of Public Administration at Rockefeller College of Public Administration and
Policy at SUNY Albany with specialization in Financial Market Regulation.
Originally from South Korea, Sora graduated from Dickinson College with a
double major in Economics and International Business & Management.
She became interested in women’s economic and financial issues while taking the
senior seminar class on Women in Economy by Professor Ebru Kongar. After receiving her Master’s degree in Economics from SUNY
Buffalo, she worked in the New York State Assembly for the 2012 legislative
session as a Graduate Scholar, which provided the opportunity for her to
understand the public policy making process. She is now enthusiastic to go back
to the Assembly for another year and work to enhance women’s roles through the
legislature. For more information on Sora Park and her Fellowship, please click
