The Celebration of English Studies event provided faculty members, administrators, graduate students, and our distinguished alumnus Karl Sandelin with the opportunity to view ENGL 2000 students' collaborative poster presentations and to honor our amazing team coaches for the work they've done this semester assisting their learning teams. The photos that follow were taken by team coach Lizze Fowler and by me. PDF files of the students' posters, as well as clips from the students' interviews of faculty members, are located in earlier posts.
