Counseling and Human Development Students Showcase Their Master's Thesis Research

The capstone projects represented this year reflect the scholarly and enthusiastic efforts of the students to attain high ideals and share their research with peers, mentors, family, and friends. Students will present their research projects from 4 to 6 p.m. on Friday, May 9, at the Rochester Academy of Medicine, 1441 East Avenue, Rochester.
