Faculty and Staff

MURALS would not be possible without help from our incredible volunteers! We are seeking volunteers to help with this year’s MURALS symposium in the form of graduate student judges, faculty guides and judges and day-of volunteers.

Nominate a Student

Take 5-10 minutes of your day to nominate undergraduate students you feel should get connected to research or are already doing phenomenal scholarly work! Did they turn in a stellar argumentative paper, are they excelling in lab, did you chat during office hours about the community work they are doing back home? All ideas could be a MURALS project.

MURALS Day Volunteers Needed

MURALS Day volunteers are integral to the success of the symposium. Volunteer 1-2 hours of your time at MURALS: checking in student presenters, organizing presentation rooms, driving PSD High School students to/ from the LSC, moderating presentations, and so much more!

Faculty Guides and Poster Judges Needed

Are you a faculty or staff member with a background in research? Several of our MURALS students are conducting independent projects and need guidance on where to start/ how to finish. Give them advice about their projects, how to get published, where to find funding, and more. This could be a 1-2 hour a week commitment on your end to help bring their education to life!

Don’t have the time to commit in guiding students? That’s okay, consider an asynchronous option in volunteering as a MURALS Poster Judge. The week leading up to MURALS, we ask judges to evaluate 3-4 posters online in their own time. Then, come to MURALS day and give live feedback to those same students in-person during the afternoon Poster Gallery session.
