The Richter Scholars program distributes funds to support student research activities that are devised, initiated and carried out by individual student researchers, with mentorship, guidance and expertise provided by a faculty mentor. The purpose of these funds is to support educational research opportunities that encourage the practice of independent thought, leading to independent achievement and personal responsibility.
For the purpose of this program, research is defined as a knowledge-generating activity that is designed to provide new information on a topic, tool or process, and that proceeds according to established and accepted research methods.
*Faculty mentors: Please note that several important proposal elements and eligibility requirements have been recently updated. Please thoroughly read through all posted documentation as you work with your student mentee to prepare a proposal.

Come to our Mathetes panel from 7 to 8:30 p.m., on Thursday, Oct. 7, in Hoover 102.
Mathetes is a safe conversational space in which students and faculty can engage with each other and learn from the experience of others in their Fox community. Our hope for this panel is that we can confront the myth that every person who is involved in higher education has the same educational experience.

Cookies and coffee will also be provided.

Here’s a quick reminder for your safety and security. There are still some warm days ahead, and we understand some people like to open windows and prop doors for better airflow. We would ask that you remember to secure your area if you are not around and make sure the doors are not propped open. Leaving windows open or doors propped is a safety and security concern.
Remember, please secure your valuables and don’t leave valuables in your car, unlocked room, or in general just lying around. If something seems out of place or you have a concern, feel free to call Campus Public Safety at 503-554-2090. We have 24/7 officers are on duty.
Thank you and enjoy your weekend!
