2019 Celebrating Student Achievement

Celebrating Student Achievement (CSA) Day at Meredith College is a day-long celebration of student achievement that includes research presentations, posters, performances, creative projects, awards, exhibits, and more. Much of the day is a showcase of student research. By the time they graduate, 51% of Meredith students conduct undergraduate research in partnership with faculty mentors. Since the event cannot take place on campus this year because of the pandemic, the CSA Day planning committee is exploring other options to virtually celebrate student achievement.
