  • Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday of Finals Week (May 9-12)

Attend this Spring's Honors Poster Presentation this week

The best way to demystify the Honors Project is to set up a meeting with Laurie or Leisha...and the second best way is to simply attend an Honors Poster Presentation to see what typical projects look like. The second option includes snacks and the next opportunity to attend a poster presentation is this Wednesday, May 4 from 3:00-5:00pm in the Great Hall of the MU. This is a come-and-go event where you can walk around and chat with presenters, read through their posters, ask questions, and have a bite to eat before you resume your Prep Week panic-studying.

[Hopefully] back for Fall '22: Honors Salons! However, we need your input. For more information and to suggest faculty speakers, fill out this form.
