Psychology Major Amanda Baeten and her faculty mentor, Dr. Blair Wisco, traveled to Washington, DC in April 2016 to participate in “Posters on the Hill.” Their research presentation on “How Rumination Affects Emotions” was one of a select few chosen nationally for display to Members of Congress to promote awareness about the importance of federal funding for undergraduate research.
Below, Blair and Amanda, are shown with Congressman Mark Walker (6th District NC) and Dr. Lee Phillips, UNCG’s Director of the Undergraduate Research, Scholarship and Creativity Office (URSCO). URSCO provided generous funding support that enabled the execution of the project.
