What is Scholars Day?

In 1984, Scholars Day was instituted at The College at Brockport through the
efforts of the College Senate. Scholars Day has continued as a celebration of
scholarly pursuits by the campus community.

Scholars Day has several purposes:

to publicize research, including methodologies and conclusions
to share new ideas and concepts
to expand knowledge
to provide an opportunity to socialize with members of the campus community outside of one's own department.

This is our 29th year of celebrating scholarship on our campus!

The first Scholars Day on April 24, 1984 had a total of 66 presentations and six poster sessions made by 66 faculty/staff (and no students).

Scholars Day 2012 will have 310 presentations/poster sessions/demonstrations made by over 582 presenters including 560 students and 22 faculty/staff, with an additional 90 faculty/staff participating as sessions chairs but not presenting. An impressive growth!

Join us in celebrating student success on Wednesday, April 11, 2012!
