PULLMAN, Wash.— Students in the Washington State University Honors College received numerous awards at the spring 2022 Showcase for Undergraduate Research and Creative Activities (SURCA) for presentations of their research, scholarship, and creative activities.
SURCA is the unique WSU-wide venue for students from all majors, years in college, and all WSU campuses to share their mentored research, and have judges evaluate their work as shown on a poster. At this year’s event, around 140 students from four campuses were among those accepted to present 112 posters to 90 judges. Faculty, postdoctoral students, and community experts used a common rubric to evaluate and score presentations across nine SURCA categories.
At the awards ceremony, 43 total students from WSU Pullman and Vancouver and the Global Campus were announced as recipients of 33 awards. In total, nearly $8,000 will be given to them to support the efforts.
