Virtual Scholars Day
The Carl Goodson Honors Program hosts Ouachita's annual Scholars Day, which is also
sponsored by Alpha Tau, a student academic honors organization here on campus. Scholars
Day focuses on the academic achievements accomplished throughout the school year by
students from various disciplines. Many of these projects are conducted one-on-one,
under the guidance of or in partnership with faculty from across the university.
Due to the outbreak of COVID-19 in early 2020 and the move to online course work,
this year's Scholars Day has also moved to a virtual setting, and we are so excited
for you to see the quality research, scholarship, and creative work of our students.
Click the links below to navigate directly to specific presentations or areas of study,
but feel free to explore the other entries in Ouachita’s Scholarly Commons, as well!
Enjoy your time at Virtual Scholars Day 2020!
