2008 Posters on the Hill (POH)
 

Undergraduate Posters for National and State Legislatures

The Council on Undergraduate Research has established this special section of the CUR website to provide information to participants in our annual "Posters on the Hill" (POH) event, which occurs in late March or April of each year. Sixty competitively selected student posters are displayed on the U.S. Capitol during a late afternoon reception. In the morning of the same day, there is an orientation session, followed by visits from students and their faculty mentors to their Representatives and Senators' offices.
