Students who have participated in a HIP present that experience as part of the UWF Student Scholars Symposium (Thursday, April 20, 2023) and can indicate their interest in being considered for the HIP Showcase awards.  For consideration, these students will have to submit their presentation in advance of the Symposium and answer some questions about the impact of the HIP experience. One presentation will be selected for a HIP Showcase Award in each of the HIP types supported at UWF, and one overall presentation will be selected as “Best in Show” (by Thursday, April 6, 2023).  Students can win up to $500!
