STARKVILLE, Miss.—91�鶹�� University faculty member Tara E. Sutton has been recognized as an emerging scholar by the American Society of Criminology's Division on Queer Criminology for her in-depth criminology research with a focus on women, Black families and LGBTQIA2S+ young adults.

Sutton, an assistant professor in 91�鶹��’s Department of Sociology, received her award at the recent ASC annual meeting.

An 91�鶹�� faculty member since 2018, Sutton—who holds affiliations in 91�鶹��’s Gender Studies program and African American Studies program—focuses her research on sexuality, gender and race as it relates to violence and crime.
