May 7, <strong>2010</strong><br />

Welcome to the Fourth Annual Symposium for <strong>Undergraduate</strong><br />

<strong>Research</strong>, <strong>Scholarship</strong>, <strong>and</strong> <strong>Creative</strong> <strong>Activity</strong>.<br />

The creative process can be a lonely one. The researcher toils away,<br />

often in isolation, trying to shed new light that enriches our<br />

underst<strong>and</strong>ing of social or natural phenomena, nourishes our emotions,<br />

or enlivens our souls. However, presenting the results of that process to one‘s peers <strong>and</strong><br />

mentors is exhilarating. Here, the key is clarity of communication <strong>and</strong> openness David to comments Fairris<br />

<strong>and</strong> criticism. The symposium presentation is how we reveal the product of our toils <strong>and</strong><br />

improve that product through careful listening.<br />

I commend you on your creative efforts <strong>and</strong> wish you the best as you present the results of<br />

those efforts to the larger UCR community.<br />

With best regards,<br />

David Fairris<br />
