Baylor Padgett featured as a Knoxville Rising Star

Sociology major, Baylor Padgett - a Knoxville Voyager Rising Star

Sociology major, Baylor Padgett, is featured (along with her exceptional artwork) as one of Knoxville Voyager’s Rising Stars on January 12, 2022. Baylor has designed an academic program that infuses her sociology degree program with her artistic skill and talent. She is currently doing independent research focused on college women’s mental health during Covid-19 using Photovoice methodology. You can read her interview and view her artwork here.

I am currently a sociology major at Emory and Henry College. I truly believe that art is a universal way to reach people’s humanity. My goal is to take the knowledge and research skills I’m learning in the program and combine it with the power that art has to facilitate real change for those who desperately need it.
