PULLMAN, Wash. — Members of Washington State University’s undergraduate scholarly community will reveal their research findings during the Freshman Seminar Research Symposium Thursday, Dec. 2 from noon to 5 p.m. in the Compton Union Building.
Students will present fair-style in the Cascade Rooms 123-127, and formal presentations will be in the Series Rooms 212-216.
The researchers, all first-year students enrolled in the university’s Freshman Seminar Program, have worked under the mentorship of undergraduate and graduate students as well as teaching and library faculty. Twenty-three seminars will participate in presenting their projects. These projects are a culmination of research and analysis and will be presented using multimedia technologies.
The Freshman Seminar Program’s excellence has received national acclaim. In fall 2001, the program was awarded the Commission for Academic Support in Higher Education Exemplary Programs Award as well as the American College Personal Association Excellent Student Program Award. In 1999, it was nominated for recognition by the John Templeton Foundation for “educating to foster personal and civic responsibility.”
The Dec. 2 research symposium is free and open to the public. For more information, contact the WSU Student Advising and
