Faculty: Nominate senior research, projects

The Z. Smith Reynolds Library Senior Showcase recognizes exemplary senior thesis research and senior projects completed by Wake Forest undergraduates in their final year. Launched in 2010, the Senior Showcase gives students the opportunity to share their research or projects before the Wake Forest community at an event hosted by the library on Tuesday, April 24, at 3 p.m.

A committee of library faculty will select up to five students, one from each Division of the College, to be honored from a pool of nominees recommended by you.

We ask that you please nominate students for this honor using the following criteria:

• theses or projects completed during the 2010-2011 academic year, and
• students are in their final year at Wake Forest.

Nominations should be made with respect to the originality of the work, the potential impact of the work upon the field, and the overall worthiness of the work to merit distinction. Please note that nominations must be made for honors theses or projects or for work done during a required senior seminar, and not for papers or projects completed by seniors during general coursework. After all nominations have been received, we will contact students to alert them of their nomination and to request a copy of the thesis or project for review. To submit your nomination, please complete the Senior Showcase Nomination form. The deadline for nominations is Friday, March 16, at 5 p.m.

Please contact Molly Keener, Scholarly Communication Librarian, at keenerm@wfu.edu or x5829 with questions.
