This year ten McNair scholars culminated their research projects by presenting their findings at the McNair Summer Research Colloquium. The colloquium, which was hosted at the Lindou Auditorium and steamed live on Zoom, was attended by staff and faculty from various departments and organizations on campus and capped off with a Qdoba catered lunch. Congratulations to our scholars who worked diligently on their research all year and did a great job presenting in-person for the first time!
