New event recognizes undergraduate humanities research

Twenty-five undergraduate students will gather today, April 21, to talk about their research and creative projects during the Humanities Showcase on campus.

The event will begin at 4 p.m. at the Stanford Humanities Center and will include short talks, a gallery walk with posters and several digital presentations, as well as creative performances by the students.

The goal of the showcase, sponsored by the Office of the Vice Provost for Teaching and Learning, the School of Humanities and Sciences and the Humanities Center, is to celebrate the contributions of undergraduate students across the spectrum of the humanities at Stanford.

STEVE RATHJE, who studies symbolic systems, psychology, and theater and performance studies, will be performing monologues from his play Signs, which is based on psychology research and was the recipient of the 2016 Oregon Play Prize.
