Research & Creative Achievement
Research & Creative Achievement Day
The 2024 Research and Creative Achievement Day will be held on April 18. This is a day set aside to celebrate the work and achievements of undergraduate and graduate students on the Winona and Rochester campuses.
On this day, we will showcase student research and creative achievement through campus-wide, in-person, virtual, and pre-recorded research-related presentations, performances, exhibitions, and other department-sponsored events.
This day will allow students to participate more fully in celebrating research and creative accomplishments through participation in not only the Ramaley Celebration, but also other department and campus events.
Ramaley Celebration
The Ramaley Celebration will be one of many events happening on the Research and Creative Achievement Day.
The Ramaley Celebration is named for Judith Ramaley, the 14th president of Winona State University.
Dr. Ramaley continued to teach during her tenure as president, and she was an ardent supporter of student research and creative achievement as an integral part of the educational experience at WSU.
