Abstract
"Creating Undergraduate Research Opportunities in Changing Communities" will be the theme of the Council on Undergraduate Research (CUR) Seventh National Conference to be held at Occidental College in Los Angeles, California, June 25-27, 1998. The CUR biennial National Conferences provide support and networking opportunities for faculty and administrators from predominately undergraduate institutions. In addition, there are opportunities for interaction with representatives from public and private funding agencies, industry, and the K-12 community. Anyone interested in undertaking or promoting undergraduate research is encouraged to attend. CUR conferences provide the opportunity for faculty members involved in undergraduate research to meet face-to-face with colleagues with similar priorities, commitments, and challenges. Deans and other college administrators will also have the opportunity for the exchange of ideas and information pertaining to issues affecting undergraduate research and science education. The three-day conference includes dozens of interactive workshops, plenary sessions, guest speakers, and poster sessions. This is the first CUR National Conference to be held on the West Coast.
