Inaugural
Naylor Workshop
The Naylor Workshop on Undergraduate Research held its first gathering of undergraduate researchers and faculty mentors, November 14–16, 2014. Conceived and executed through the efforts of Dominic DelliCarpini, Naylor Endowed Professor of Writing Studies along with his colleague Cindy Crimmins and undergraduate researcher, Megan Schoettler, this event was designed to help students learn key methods of research in the field and to enrich their own research projects. Through an endowment established by Mr. Irv Naylor, this workshop was envisioned to provide funding and resources for undergraduate researchers to meet with others doing this work and to be mentored by national experts in the field on research methods as they were in the early and intermediate stages of that process.
