Students participate in Private Scholars Day

A gathering of undergraduate scholars and their faculty research mentors was held at the State Capitol Rotunda on Feb. 20. The event was sponsored by the Minnesota Private College Council. It is a celebration of the scholarly excellence of undergraduate student researchers and their faculty mentors at Minnesota’s private colleges.

Also attending was Ryan Soukup (History) with a poster titled, “Cultural Change and the Dakota Uprising.” Dr. Debra Martin (Biology) and Dr. Liz Throop, pictured, were the faculty advisors.
