Excerpt: "One of the greatest rewards of an undergraduate education is the opportunity for students to work directly with a faculty member on a project that involves research, scholarship, and creativity. On Friday, Oct. 7, we will view the results of those shared opportunities at the fourth annual CLASS Undergraduate Research and Intellectual Opportunities (CURIO) Symposium, which will begin at 6:30 p.m. in the Carroll Building. I invite you to join me for the evening as we enjoy papers, projects, posters, and performances by outstanding CLASS undergraduates."
