Honors Students Symposium

Presentation Guidelines

Please register your Program information and schedule preferences on-line by January 18.

We have planned a 20-minute time slot for your thesis presentation. This allows 2 minutes
to set-up, 12 minutes to present, 4 minutes for questions, and 2 minutes to break-down. There will be a time-keeper in the room. It is very important that the afternoon remains
on schedule.

Please save your PowerPoint presentation on either a flash-drive or a CD. Attempt to keep your PowerPoint basic:  no high-resolution pictures or charts, make the file as small as possible, and please also refrain from animation on your slides.

Please stop by Marianist Hall when it is convenient for you and
Ms. Karen Slattery to test-run your presentation on the Learning Space’s computers.

If you have any questions please feel free to check with Ms. Slattery.
Phone: 937.229.5585; email Karen.Slattery@notes.udayton.edu

If you plan to use a Stander Symposium poster as part of your presentation, please make sure you following the guidelines and deadlines for creating and printing it.

Also stop by Marianist Hall when convenient to ensure there is a place to display it to your satisfaction and that arrangements are made before the day of the Symposium with Ms. Slattery.

The primary audience for the Honors’ Students Symposium is first- through third-year Honors and Berry Scholar students.  We have also invited administrators, staff, chairpersons and faculty, and, of course, your faculty advisor. In your preparation, consider that any combination could be your audience. Feel free to invite other guests such as roommates, friends and family members.

The day is modeled after professional conferences, so your dress should reflect that level
of professionalism.

Special Note

There will be a “check-in” table on the day of the Symposium.  Please arrive about 10 to 15 minutes before your presentation to let us know you have arrived, and to get materials.
