Dak Kopec (Architecture) published a coedited anthology with Jennifer Burgermeister, Rice University. This anthology includes essays from members of UNLV, including Ash Quinn (Service Learning & Leadership); faculty in residence Candice Wilcken; and student Aluna Perry (Architecture).

Every life holds a story — every story leaves a mark. This anthology delves into the profound emotional weight of personal experiences and trauma. Within these pages is a diverse collection of transformative stories that lay bare the moments—both life-altering and seemingly small—that shape our identities, relationships, and perspectives. Every journey is unique, yet beneath the surface, our emotions and experiences are deeply connected.
