GSE Research Symposium ~ Call for Proposals Extended

We have some exciting news regarding the GSE Student Research Symposium.  We were notified that we have won an SBI Programming Grant that will allow partial funding assistance for student poster presentations.  This will help alleviate some of the cost associated with printing posters.

With this news, we have decided to extend the Call for Proposals deadline to Thursday, March 13th at 11:59pm.  By extending the deadline by one week and providing funding assistance, it is our hope that we sill see an increase of both, poster and panel presentation proposals this year.  An updated proposal form is attached here.

If you are planning a presentation at a spring or summer conference, this is a wonderful forum for practicing and polishing presentations. We also encourage adapted class projects and papers.

Additionally, if you are interested in serving on the Symposium Planning Committee, please visit the following website for more information.  There are many ways you can help out and the time commitment you would provide is up to you!

Veteran’s Survey ~ Participants Needed

Are you a veteran?  If so, you are eligible for a $10 gift card to Starbucks, on campus. We are looking for approximately 40 to 60 minutes of your time to do an interview of your military and civilian experiences.

If interested please contact Ted Robbins at tjrobbin@buffalo.edu (please include “Veteran’s Study” in subject box)

Our study is interested in how individuals transition into the services and how the military experience shaped the way they view themselves and those around them. Additionally, we are interested in how soldiers transition out of the military into civilian life.
