Every summer, McDaniel students make strides in their academic and professional savvy with the donor-funded Student-Faculty Collaborative Summer Research Program. By engaging with pressing issues — like contributing data to a global study on insect declines or surveying Maryland high school educators about current challenges — they gain skills that serve their communities now and in the future.
Inspired by their majors, two students in the Student-Faculty Collaborative Summer Research Program launched studies in underrepresented fields. With guidance from Lecturer and Director of First-Year Composition Alexander Champoux-Crowley, the students investigated theatre funding and interpreters in secondary education.
