On Wednesday, March 5, 2008, CSU Stanislaus held its Annual Student Research Competition at the Faculty Development Center, featuring presentations by twenty-five students. This was a great opportunity for the university to highlight and celebrate the academic accomplishments of our diverse student population. The winners of the competition plus four more entrants also qualified to advance to the statewide CSU Student Research Competition, to be held this year at CSU-East Bay on May 2-3. At this event, students from all 23 CSU campuses will submit written papers and make oral presentations before juries of professional experts from major corporations, foundations, public agencies, and universities in California.
