In general, student presenta
tions involve significant original
research or thinking, often in the
form of multimedia presentations.
In the past, a number of Honors
Day presentations have gone on to
win praise at other academic con
ferences around the country.
Presenters may also publish their
work in the “NGCSU Journal of
Undergraduate Research.”
The day is traditionally capped
by “The Big Debate,” an annual
debate about a pressing social or
cultural issue, with this year’s
topic being sexual harassment.
The brainchild of Eric Link,
Ph.D., Language and Literature,
the Big Debate is described as
“something fun and even a bit
rowdy, yet with a very high level
of academic debate.”
