Description
Welcome to the Holy Cross Academic Conference 2002 sponsored by the Office of the Vice President for Academic Affairs and Dean of the College and the Office of Academic Services and Learning Resources. This three-day conference is designed to provide Holy Cross students with an opportunity to present the results of their independent work. The programs, projects, posters, and performances to be presented are the result of student work over one or two semesters under the guidance of faculty members. The 300 students presenting this year represent but a fraction of the independent and group-project opportunities of which our current students have taken advantage, and include works from the performing and visual arts, social sciences, humanities, and natural sciences. Many of the academic programs represented here have previously held their own annual conference, but this is the second of what we hope will be an annual event at which we highlight the breadth and depth of our programs. Of greater significance perhaps is the opportunity for our community to appreciate the independence, creativity, and intellectual discipline our students have developed while at Holy Cross and the role our faculty have played as mentors and model teacher-scholars.
