Festival of Scholars


The Festival of Scholars showcases scholarly work of undergraduate and graduate students from the College of Arts and Sciences, the School of Education and the School of Business. Scholarship is broadly defined and includes scientific experimentation, creative works, community-based inquiry and other investigations.

This year's event will include more than 200 faculty-mentored student presentations and several special alumni presenters in celebration of CLU's 50th Anniversary.
