Justine Sargent is a fourth-year English major with a minor in Film, Television, and Digital Media. Last year, she was part of the Undergraduate Research Fellows Program, where she researched the queer genealogy and adaptations of the folktale “Bluebeard.” This year, she is completing a critical research thesis through the English departmental honors program. Her project analyzes human experimentation in the Victorian horror texts The Lifted Veil by George Eliot, Dracula by Bram Stoker, and The Great God Pan by Arthur Machen. Her project examines how the female body during this period was viewed as a source of medical didactic novelty and a medium of knowledge exchange. Through this study, she hopes to raise questions about the relationship between gender, the body, and scientific ethics. In addition to being a Keck Scholar, Justine is the President of the UCLA English Honor Society, an Advocacy Ambassador for the LGBTQ Campus Resource Center, and a member of the Fowler Museum Student Council. After graduation, she hopes to pursue a PhD in English.
