Wednesday, April 11, 2007 was UMF's Symposium Day. On this day many undergraduate students show their research to the community. Classes were cancelled so that every student had the opportunity to attend the presentations that they wanted. There were all sorts of topics being discussed, from geology to fine arts to tours of the new Education Center on campus.
I personally attended the presentation at one o'clock in Ricker Addition. It was to show the rest of campus exactly what the Early Childhood program here at UMF do during class. I went with my friend Arielle because she is taking one of the classes and wanted me to see what it was like. She also got five points extra credit for a guest that she brought because unfortuantely the program did not make it into the booklet. We used a lot of diffearnt materials to make differant art projects. We used foam finger paint, regular finger paint, bubble paint, stampers, and marbles. It was a lot of fun. I loved how it was very hands on and I got to get messy. The people overseeing were very friendly and willing to answer all my questions. Arielle was great too because she explained a lot about the Early Childhood program and how it works.

Your photographs really tell the story. Thanks for taking the time to add them to the blog. How sad that their program didn't make the program. What do you think happened? I'll be on that committee next year, so I would love to know how to prevent that from happening again.
You didn't address what you would present at symposium, but I think I will let the photographs count as bonus points that compensate for the lack of the other. But I am curious what you think you would present. Let's talk.
