Provost and Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs Dr. Shadow Robinson said the event reflects “the academic diversity of UAFS’s programs and the intellectual excellence of our students and their faculty mentors.”
Oral presentations include studies on Ralph Waldo Emerson, Pride and Prejudice, and social media influencer culture alongside engineering projects such as an autonomous vehicle challenge, agricultural autosteer systems, and a self-watering greenhouse.
