This morning, the university held our annual Undergraduate Conference for Research and Creative Practice in Hammond Hall. The conference is a public forum to enhance student's skills, to share their work, to see the work of others in their field, and to give and receive valuable feedback. The conference was free to attend and open to the public. We're proud of the work our undergraduate community does - from the opening performance of the Fitchburg State University Choir, to the outstanding research, presentations, creative writing readings, and more, to the closing performance of the Fitchburg State Modern Jazz band at lunch.
Dr. Jonathan Harvey held practice for the Fitchburg State Chamber Choir in Weston Auditorium. As part of their regular practice, the choir ran through the three pieces they will be performing at the opening of tomorrow's Undergraduate Research Conference. Learn more about our music programs here.
