“The experience and opportunities as a whole were quite rewarding. As an undergraduate planning to go to grad school the chance to do and practice presenting research with critique is priceless.”
“The opportunity to present something I worked so hard on.”
“Very friendly and professional; you feel surrounded by like-minded, academic-oriented people who are passionate about their research and are supportive of yours.”
“I got to share my voice and hearing others share theirs as well.”
“It gave me an opportunity to talk with faculty about graduate school, and graduate students about their own work at UTSA’s graduate school.”
