Posters-at-the-Capitol 2007

Posters-at-the-Capitol, an event hosted collaboratively by Eastern Kentucky University, Kentucky Community and Technical College System, Kentucky State University, Morehead State University, Murray State University, Northern Kentucky University, University of Kentucky, University of Louisville, and Western Kentucky University, is intended to help members of Kentucky’s legislature and the Governor better understand the importance of involving undergraduates in research, scholarly, and creative work.  Undergraduates whose abstracts were selected for participation in Posters-at-the-Capitol 2007, displayed their work  in the state capitol and were encouraged, along with their faculty mentors, to arrange visits with legislators from their hometown and university districts. 

Poster-at-the-Capitol 2007 was held in the state capitol building in Frankfort on February 15, 2007, during the legislative session.

Providing undergraduates with the opportunity to engage in scholarly, research, and creative work is important to our students’ educational experience and professional development.  We encourage faculty to have their students participate in Posters-at-the-Capitol to help those in Kentucky who fund higher education understand why these experiences are so important.  If you are an undergraduate, we urge you to tell your story to your hometown and university legislators so that other Kentucky students can enjoy and benefit from the kind of experience you have had.
