OUR Events and reminders

• The OUR’s Spring Debunking Research discussion series still has upcoming sessions. To view titles, days/times, and locations, as well as register, visit and fill out this Google form. We look forward to seeing you there!
• OUR Project Funding applications for Summer and Fall Awards are now open. Summer applications will close March 21. Please make sure to consult with your mentor(s) when creating proposals. The OUR is offering sessions to provide feedback and assistance with your proposals. Email a draft to Dr. Showalter prior to joining us at the Spring help sessions (Fall proposal sessions all available). These sessions will provide a chance for you to hear how to most effectively write your proposals and receive feedback in order to revise prior to submitting the final proposal (hopefully, increasing your chances to be funded!).
