This symposium will showcase how undergraduate students are conducting meaningful research on race, gender, and sexuality. It empowers students to effectively communicate the significance of their work within academic circles and, crucially, within the broader context of American society. Ten undergraduate participants will present original research or creative activities related to ethnic studies on the topic of their choosing.
This one-day symposium will feature Dr. Alex Villalpando as keynote speaker, and four moderated panels of undergraduate research papers selected from a highly competitive pool of applicants representing UCR and other colleges and universities from across the country.
