Participants will join one of two Zoom sessions, where selected students* can give 6-8 min talks followed by a few minutes for questions.
*One student/project group from each institution with a faculty member(s) on the advisory committee (six LVAIC schools plus Marywood and Kutztown), with selection done by each institution.
