Academic Spree Day and Fall Fest showcase student work

You put so much work and time into your project that you feel really good about yourself. You feel as if you're contributing to something special. —llyssa Klein, student

Each year Clark students present their research and creative work at Fall Fest and Academic Spree Day (ASD), both held in Higgins University Center. These events celebrate the research and creative work Clark undergraduate students produce under the support and mentoring of the University's distinguished faculty. Throughout the day students display their research findings, present papers, participate in panel discussions, exhibit their artwork—which include paintings, drawings, sculptures and graphic designs—and perform original musical compositions. The Clark community looks forward to these events each fall and spring. Begun in 1991 and overseen every year since by psychology department faculty member Dr. Seymour Wapner, Academic Spree Day has become the highlight of the Clark academic year. Beginning in 2000, Fall Fest offers a similar venue for the presentation of undergraduate research and creative activity.
