For the first time the department scheduled a symposium during Honors Week in April 1998, in which these students presented the results of their research publicly.  Friends and family were invited by mailed invitations; faculty and current students were also encouraged to attend.  The event and reception afterwards were organized by Professor Carla Yanni.  It was a great hit with the audience, especially with the proud families.
