Hello NCUR followers!

Right now, the National Conference of Undergraduate Research 2011 has over 63 abstract topics, and counting! We even expect to add more to the list as we come closer to the end of the registration period.

Not only are there a lot of topics, the topics significantly vary, from biochemistry to sport management, from communications to astronomy, from dance to sustainability, from African American studies to nursing, including many MANY more.

One abstract, entitled "An Analysis and Presentation of Duke Ellington's 'Satin Doll,'"explains how jazz music is about the combination of a simple melody that has complex harmonies.

Another abstract, entitled "Fruity Pebbles, Fruit by the Foot, and Pop Tarts as a "Good Breakfast": Using Media Literacy to Help Young Children Make Sense of Nutritional Messages in TV Commercials" dives into how children need to think critically about TV commercials, especially those pertaining to nutrition.

Want to learn more about these awesome abstracts? Then register NOW for NCUR 2011!!

There definitely won't be a shortage of topics this year at NCUR. So I have a challenge for you, see how many topics you can learn about at NCUR this year! Can you do that?

Until next time....
