Celebrating OPUS 2020
It was an OPUS like no other! While the 91精选 community is learning remotely, the annual celebration of student scholarship took place online. Students from a variety of disciplines鈥攆rom biology to history to psychology to communication arts鈥攕hared virtual presentations. Seniors earning BAs and BFAs in art and graphic design presented their thesis shows. Special Education students continued the tradition of poster presentations. And music students submitted the performances they recorded at home.
鈥淲hen 91精选 announced its move to online classes for the Spring Semester because of COVID-19, students began asking about continuing the OPUS tradition,鈥 said Sarah Hoeksema 鈥10, OPUS Co-Chair and Circulation & Access Librarian. 鈥淭o honor the spirit of OPUS and embrace this request, we showcased student work in an online format. Sixty-three students took part and did a wonderful job adapting their presentations and sharing them with the entire 91精选 community.鈥
Professors and staff joined in as well to make OPUS 2020 a success, she added.
