From the biological sciences to philosophy and undergraduate to doctoral work, a number of students recently earned high honors for their research. Judges for the Student Research Symposium, held March 9-10 at Love Library, have announced the presentation winners. 

Each college had Dean鈥檚 Awards for research specific to that college, while there were also Library Awards, President鈥檚, Provost鈥檚, and Undergraduate Excellence Awards 鈥� for both posters and oral presentations 鈥� conferred across a number of disciplines.

The Awards

The Charles Wei-hsun Fu Foundation recognized Undergraduate Ethan Howe with their Award for Philosophy for his 鈥淲itness Consciousness: A Response to Chalmers鈥� 鈥楬ard Problem鈥�.鈥� Philosophy professor Robert Francescotti mentored him for the project, which also earned a President鈥檚 Award.

The Library Award was given to undergraduates Cassidy Berg and Nicholas Ynami, master鈥檚 student Breena Loraine, and doctoral student Marta Jankowska for their research in physics, Asian studies, musicology and business, and geography, respectively.  Berg also received an Undergraduate Excellence Award for her oral presentation, while Loraine also earned a Dean鈥檚 Award from the College of Professional Studies and Fine Arts.

The Provost鈥檚 Award was given to 13 students, while the President鈥檚 Award was conferred to 10 students.
