Welcome from <strong>Undergraduate</strong> Education<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 />
