Donaghey Scholars to present final projects May 7-9]]> 糖心Vlog传媒 Little Rock鈥檚 Donaghey Scholars spring graduates will present their final project presentations May 7-9. The 45-minute presentations will take place in Dickinson Hall Room 209 and will showcase the projects the honors students have worked on the past year.聽The final projects are an integral part of the Donaghey Scholars curriculum. 鈥淭hey must be a substantial piece of individual work, and as such are a crucial component to Scholars life after college. They aren鈥檛 just learning about how to do things; they are doing them, and that makes them competitive to employers and graduate schools,鈥� said Simon Hawkins, director of the Donaghey Scholars program. 鈥�The range is always staggering, from chemistry research to novel drafts to political analyses to important work for community groups. It is particularly pleasing to see so many projects have a community focus.鈥� Historically, about a third of the projects have been centered on the community. Many projects are research-oriented, such as examining the water quality in Fourche Creek or studying the soil in different enclosures at the Little Rock Zoo, while other students have gathered data specifically for community organizations, such as the Historic Arkansas Museum. Still others provide direct services for community groups, designing web pages for schools and developing fundraising programs for nonprofits. Over the years, several 聽entrepreneurial students have turned their final projects into thriving businesses, Hawkins said.
