An information session for participants in this year’s Spring Symposium was held on Wednesday night, and I attended on behalf of LIS.  I shared our new Resources for Presenters site, which outlines the support that LIS and the CTLR offer.  LIS will provide workshops on making maps and posters, feedback on practice run-throughs of oral presentations, and assistance with PowerPoint.  In addition, the CTLR will run two public speaking workshops.  The Undergraduate Research Office is expecting about 130 students to participate in this year’s symposium, which is scheduled for Friday, April 17 from 1-6 pm in McCardell Bicentennial Hall.  This is the third annual Spring Symposium, and participants from previous years consistently report that it was a significant and rewarding experience.  All presentations are open to the public.
