Oral Presentations
- You are encouraged to reserve a study room and rehearse prior to the symposium.
- Oral presentations will take place in a classroom setting with the presenter(s) at the front of the room.
- A computer and projector will be available.
- Each student or group will be granted 20 minutes to present: 15 minutes to speak and 5 minutes for questions.
- The schedule needs to be enforced because there are many presenters before and after you. Please be sure to practice your timing.
- A moderator will be in your room to track your time and give you a 3-minute warning.
- Limit your presentation to what you know you can cover in 15 minutes, so that you don't have to speak too fast or skip anything.
- Bring your presentation (PowerPoint, Prezi, etc.) on a USB drive.
- Keep a copy of your presentation in your email as a backup.
Performances/Exhibits
- Performances will take place in Butler Chapel. Contact Sarah Steele, Head of Research and Instruction Services, to share instrument and setup needs.
