Student Scholarship & Creative Achievement
2012 Conference, 13th Annual

April 4, 2012

Welcome!

Welcome to the 13th Annual Student Scholarship and Creative Achievement Day Conference!   We are thrilled that the participation in this year’s event is almost double that of last year – 165 presentations and well over 200 hundred students participating.

Another first is the collaboration of the SSCA Committee and the American Indian Resource Center in bringing you this year’s theme:   Crossing Great Divides in Education.    It is hoped that our Keynote Speaker, Hattie Kauffman, will speak to the opportunities and challenges of meeting diverse needs in education.    It is hoped that the many Native American events and the wonderful presentations of our students will be ample illustration of the richness in diversity at Bemidji State University and the bridging that is occurring between traditional and Western knowledge domains.
