Oct. 20, 2021 —  Â鶹´«Ã½ is continuing its “Spotlight on Scholarship†symposium which will celebrate faculty research, scholarship and creative activity. Spotlight on Scholarship, which began in 2018, was suspended briefly in 2020 because of the COVID-19 pandemic.

“Spotlight on Scholarship allows the brightest and dynamic minds at NKU to share their ideas,†said Dr. Brian Hackett, a member of the University Research Council. “It’s an amazing day that focuses on learning and networking. We encourage everyone to stop by if they can.â€

The event will be hosted in the Budig Theater at University Center beginning at 8:45 a.m. and will conclude at about 4:30 p.m. Topics to be discussed include works of literature, music and election security issues.

What: Spotlight on Scholarship
When: Oct. 21, 2021, at 8:45 a.m.

Over 25 professors will compete for the university’s SOL Award, named after the goddess of the sun in Norse mythology. There will also be a community building award for the presenter with the largest in-person audience.

Hackett added the presentations are geared to a broad audience, free of jargon and designed to be understood by all.
