If you ever wonder what Davidson College students do all year, the annual Verna Miller Case Research and Creative Works Symposium on Thursday, May 7, offers a taste of their extensive research, talent, and hard work. 

There are so many amazing things about life in a college town. And in case you might have missed it in past years, one of the neatest things members of the Davidson community can do is to wander around the Davidson College campus during this year’s Verna Miller Case Symposium.

While the symposium begins at 8:30 a.m. and continues through 4:30 p.m., there will be a formal kickoff at 9:20 a.m. on the stage in front of the library. The symposium comes the day after the final day of classes and includes many capstone presentations by students.

Below is a detailed timeline of events, with a color-coded key at the bottom. In the event of inclement weather, the schedule provides alternate (indoor) locations for events slated to be held outdoors.
