"Show Me Research Week is a celebration of [University of Missouri student] accomplishments and a showcase for all community stakeholders to see their investments come to fruition," as stated on the website. Students submit works across multiple scholarly and artistic disciplines, and selected works are displayed to the public. It is a major honor for the students.

I select exemplary work from my classes to be showcased and invite those students to participate. If those students choose to apply, and if they are accepted, I mentor them through the preparation of their display.
