Campus Events

The theme for the Fall 2022/Spring 2023 Common Hour is Honorable Leadership. We are excited to share the schedule for the Spring 2022 Common Hour series with the sub-topic, Access to Healthcare. We will explore what that means by digging into a different issue each month, and engaging with speakers that bring diverse perspectives and experiences.

Student Research Day was founded in 2010 as a way to recognize and celebrate the research, scholarship and creative activities of students and their faculty mentors. It provides an opportunity for undergraduates–especially seniors–to share their scholarly research or creative projects with a supportive community of faculty, staff and peers. The day is also a collective recognition and understanding of the wide spectrum of research disciplines students and faculty are involved in as they pursue creative academic and scholarly achievements.

Due to the impact of the coronavirus pandemic, Wilson will hold its 11th annual Student Research Day virtually, using the Zoom videoconferencing platform to allow students to present their research to an audience of campus community members who watch student presentations on their computers. Because the audience is limited to 300 people at any one time, only those who have MyWilson logins can view the presentations.

Beginning Friday, March 13, no events will be held on campus through the end of the semester (May 14, 2020) where 10 or more individuals may attend. This policy applies to all college-sponsored events, including those organized by students, and any events hosted by external organizations on our campus. As a result this event has been canceled.
