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.
