MxCC’s Founders Hall will be transformed by students
into a showcase for their research, academic accomplishments, and overall
dedication to their fields of study.
This “Academic Convivium,” which will take place Friday, April 24,
from 9 a.m. to 2:30 p.m., is the first formal event the College has hosted to
highlight the rigorous work students undertake during their time at MxCC. The public is encouraged to attend this
impressive display of academic excellence.
The
event will feature student presenters from MxCC’s Honors Program as well as
from many departments and degree programs including sociology, engineering, biotechnology,
and human services. Throughout the day, 46 students will be on hand in the
Founders Hall Pavilion, the cafeteria, and the student lounge to display and
discuss their projects.
“Our
students conduct research, produce creative work, and apply sophisticated
problem solving approaches to complex issues,” said Dr. Anna Wasescha,
president of MxCC. “The Academic
Convivium gives them a way to share the outcomes of their work with the whole
college. It also recognizes the talent
and creativity of the faculty who advise students on their projects.”
