Student Scholarship Day registration open

Registration for Student Scholarship Day 2008 is open through February 15. Students and their faculty mentors who have engaged in scholarly and creative works are asked to share their projects with the Grand Valley community by registering for this event. Presentations from all disciplines are encouraged. This is a day to celebrate the outstanding achievements of our student scholars.

On April 9, 2008, SSD presentations will run uninterrupted throughout the day in both Padnos Hall and Kirkhof Center. The day will culminate with an hors d’ouvre reception at 4 p.m., followed by a keynote speech by Dr. Tyrone Hayes from the Integrative Biology Department at UC Berkeley.

The SSD registration process now includes keywords. Students presenters can choose keywords which relate to their presentations. SSD attendees can use these keywords to group the presentations by topic and to find the cross-disciplinary connections in our students’ scholarly and creative work.

The SSD 2008 Abstract Book will feature a section that showcases the publications and presentations that Grand Valley faculty and students have achieved together. If you and a student have received a publication or gave a regional, national, or international presentation this year, please send the name of each author and the full citation to [email protected] .
