There will be student Zoom presentation sessions from approximately 10am to 2:30pm each day.
Each session is an hour long, with 3 simultaneous Zoom meeting rooms.
Guests can pop into a session at any time that is convenient, move from room-to-room via Zoom, and socialize on Slack!
In each room during a session, up to four students will give their thesis presentations, and then there will be time for a Q&A at the end of the session.
Guests can ask students about their thesis process, their career goals, their Honors College experience, and more!
Any discussion can continue after the session on Slack. To learn more about how we will be using this platform, check out our Connect page.
We will also be hosting special Link In @ Lunch events with guest speakers each day. More details below!
