Whitman Undergraduate Conference
Tuesday, April 15, 2025
Welcome to the 27th annual Whitman Undergraduate Conference, a celebration of the scholarship, critical thinking, self-driven exploration and creativity of Whitman students.
Built into the Spring semester academic calendar, this is a day when all students are released from their regularly scheduled class obligations in order to attend the conference. The conference is a showcase of student-centered research shared via a program of posters, presentations, performances and panel discussions.
