Logan Harris
logan.harris@duke.edu
Logan is from Charlotte, North Carolina, and graduated from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in 2022 with bachelor’s degrees in English and Comparative Literature, Human Services and Social Justice, and a minor in Education. During her undergraduate experience, she took an interdisciplinary academic approach, combining classes in public policy, city planning, economics, global studies, sociology, and more, exploring the dynamics of injustice and how we can address social issues through both policy and service. Logan’s interests are vast but they primarily center on education equity, particularly the intersection between education and city planning. She has worked in public, private, and non-profit spaces and is looking forward to dedicating her career to evaluating and improving the ways that schools and education systems support students and communities and promote equity and justice. In her free time, Logan enjoys reading, crocheting, cooking, and spending time with friends and family.
