Mahalo to everyone who stopped by SURF to talk story with our students or helped advertise the sessions to their students and colleagues. Thanks to you, we had an amazing turnout with over 400 visits, which is our largest SURF ever! This semester, we were proud to feature 115 presentations, 201 student presenters, 73 volunteers, and 22 research faculty across various disciplines.

Special mahalo nui to our ✨amazing✨research advisors who spend many additional hours conducting fieldwork, troubleshooting experiments, and connecting with our students. While many of the advisors below are veterans, we also want to applaud the newbies that jumped right in this semester to engage their students in research.

We want to especially recognize our amazing volunteers for taking time out of their busy schedules and going above and beyond to make our student presenters and guests feel comfortable at SURF.  We simply could not have run the event without them.  In fact, our volunteers are the #1 positive feedback we receive for SURF every semester!

Mahalo KapCC. We will see all of you next semester for our next SURF on December 3-5 (the last three days of instruction)!
