You are warmly invited to meet the Davis Center’s undergraduate summer travel grant recipients.  They will talk about how they arrived at their topics, share some highlights from their fieldwork, and report on the current status of their projects.  Internship grant recipients will talk about how they lined up their internships, what they did, and what they learned from the experience. 

While you listen, you can enjoy some sweets from Russia and Eastern Europe.

All are welcome! Please forward this invitation to interested members of the community.
