Íæż½ã½ã’s annual will be held April 29–May 3, celebrating the accomplishments of students, faculty, and staff with presentations and award ceremonies.
The week kicks off on Monday, April 29 with a community-engaged research event around housing insecurity, and continues on April 30 with the Honors and Awards Ceremony, which will present the top awards for student achievement in academics and leadership.
One of the major pillars of the showcase is the student research shared through poster sessions and presentations; students interested in pursuing research in the future are especially invited to come and learn from current student projects. Undergraduates from all disciplines will share their academic and creative research on May 2 at the Sister Seraphim Gibbons Undergraduate Research Symposium. The Symposium honors the spirit and impact of Sister Seraphim Gibbons ’33, who spent 52 years educating women to lead and influence as a Íæż½ã½ã's math professor. There will also be an opportunity for students to have professional headshots taken during this time.
