May 10, 2021

Ball State University is elated to announce the top presenters of the 26th annual Ball State Student Symposium.

The Student Symposium, which was held virtually April 13–28, had an incredible turnout this year, with 187 participants presenting 110 scholarly and creative projects. While we are showcasing the top presentations here, we first would like to acknowledge all of our participants—each of you rose to the challenge of adapting to an all-new digital format and worked diligently to build an interactive presentation. Sponsored Projects Administration also would like to give a special thank-you to The Graduate School and University Libraries for making this event possible with their sponsorship and support.
