Attention school representatives: please pass this information on to your faculty and their students and encourage students from your institution to participate in the conference.  In addition to the student presentations, another highlight of the conference will be an undergraduate research "mentor summit," tentatively titled "Models and Benefits of Undergraduate Research" with presentations by a panel of "master mentors" from several institutions intended to stimulate discussion among the panelists and other mentors in the audience.  Please advertise the summit to your faculty and encourage them to attend the BigSURS and participate in the summit.  More information about the conference and summit will be forthcoming.
