A Celebration of Student Projects
Research is an integral part of the education students receive at Harvey Mudd College. Successful research projects, as well as physical or virtual products, must be designed. The ability to conduct original investigations, plan an approach to a problem and see it through is essential to success in any scholarly endeavor.

We set time aside during the spring semester to celebrate the work of our students as they present their original projects in design or research. Whether the work is done in the context of the Clinic Program, as an individual research project with a faculty advisor or as part of a class project, the emphasis is on the student's own achievements. Some of this work has already been published; much more of it will be published in the future.

Presentation Days 2009 will be May 4 through May 6.

• Robert Drewell, Biology
