Are you a grad student who wants to perfect your presentation skills for a general audience? Submit a proposal to give a 5-min. low stakes and fun lightning talk about your capstone, research, or pedagogy! Scholars’ Studio is an opportunity to practice communicating your work in front of a supportive general audience — without using a lot of technical or academic jargon.
