Welcome to the Web site for Science, Society, and the Arts, a research conference at Washington and Lee University. The next conference will take place Thursday March 7 and Friday March 8, 2013 on the Washington and Lee campus.
Science, Society, and the Arts is a multi-disciplinary conference involving Washington and Lee undergraduates and law students in the presentation of their academic achievements before an audience of their peers and the faculty. Conference participants share their work via oral presentations, traditional academic-conference-style panels, poster sessions, artistic shows, or creative performances. Students, faculty, and staff may also choose to participate in colloquia organized around common readings proposed by interested Washington and Lee community members.
