I have been remiss in my blog posts, so I’ll try to kill two birds with one stone. On April 23rd, I will present the Petersheim Exposition keynote, entitled “What the Research tells Us about Undergraduate Research.” I think that this is an important topic for the college, and I’m suggesting three recent readings from Chronicle on the topic:

• Saying Yes to Undergraduate Research: an advocacy piece.
• Undergraduate Research Surges, Despite Uncertainties Over Best Practices: the conversation about how to define undergraduate research and measure its impact.
• Expanding Undergraduate Research: how to do it on a tight budget.
