We were so glad to finally be able to celebrate our scholars with our first McNair Hybrid Research Symposium! It was the best of both worlds, we got to enjoy snacks from Northern Center Catering, and our distance students were able to present without having to make the trip to Marquette. On Friday, our summer researchers presented their summer research via a 10-minute slideshow or poster presentation.
