It’s hard to believe that the summer quarter is over this week. We have really enjoyed meeting many of you and getting to know a little about your research efforts. We hope that you were able to attend a program, meet a fellow researcher or gain some helpful information from our website, blog or emails. If you have not already done so, please complete a SURI evaluation today. This is the first year of what we hope will be an annual effort, and your feedback will help us to learn and improve.
Remember, you can continue to stay in touch with the Undergraduate Research Office and what’s happening on and off campus at our website: http://ugresearch.adm.ohio-state.edu.
Lastly, here are a few reminders:
Wednesday, August 20, SURI Closing Ice Cream Celebration, in 100 Page Hall. You can stop by any time between 6 and 7:30 p.m. to grab a bowl of ice cream and say goodbye.
Apply to uro@osu.edu by August 22 to present a poster highlighting your summer research (progress report or final results) at the Fall Undergraduate Research Day Poster Forum on October 19th.

Approaching the Finish Line
The end of summer quarter is fast approaching and some of you may have preliminary results only, while others have completed your summer research projects and are writing up your final results. Wherever in the research process you may be, we hope that you are thinking about publicizing your summer research at a conference, poster forum or in a professional publication. Please consider one of the following campus opportunities for OSU students:
JUROS, the Journal of Undergraduate Research at The Ohio State University, is now accepting submissions for its first-ever online publication. All undergraduate students involved in any area of study are encouraged to submit their work to the appropriate sections: Arts & Humanities, Science & Technology, and Social Science, Business & Education. Papers are accepted on a rolling basis and are judged in a double-blind peer review.
Submission requirements can be viewed online at http://www.jurosonline.com/. Manuscripts must be tailored to the section's requirements, including page length, citation style and format. Papers are typically 15-20 pages in length. A submission to JUROS requires an electronic manuscript as a Microsoft Word document, completed author-agreement forms for each student-author and a faculty-agreement form; all submission materials must be sent as attachments by e-mail to juros.submissions@gmail.com. Both the faculty advisor and student-author(s) will be contacted personally to validate authorship before the manuscript is considered for review.
All other necessary forms, formatting information, upcoming events, contact information, and answers to other questions are available at http://www.jurosonline.com/. Questions should be forwarded to Olga Borodulin at juros@osu.edu.
Undergraduate Research Day Poster Forum on October 19th
The URO is currently accepting applications to present a poster highlighting your summer research (progress report or final results) at the Fall Undergraduate Research Day.

There are many other opportunities to publicize your research. Check out the URO website at http://ugresearch.adm.ohio-state.edu/ for more ideas.. Visit the Present at Forums and Present in Journals pages specifically. Good luck!

SURI events this week: 8/4-10
Hope you are getting into the Olympic spirit! Opening ceremony begins Friday night at 7:30pm on NBC. Interesting tidbit: in China, the ceremony will begin at 8:08pm, 8/8/08. Eight happens to be a very lucky number in Chinese because it is a homonym for "good fortune."
We'll be having our weekly vittles at the Brown Bag Lunch on Wednesday at noon on the Oval. Come even if you haven't been able to join us yet this whole summer! Also on Saturday evening will be our Ultimate game (sadly, not yet an Olympic sport) at 6pm on the Lincoln turf fields.
In other news, Helene is out of the office this week, and Wednesday is Michael's last day as he is moving to Boston on Thursday. Suzanne will be at the URO during our office hours (8:30-3:30) this week.
Coming up next week:
Quiet Rage
Research Ethics Dinner, Film, and Discussion
Tuesday, August 12
5-7pm, 110B Page Hall
Please RSVP to uro@osu.edu
Come join us and the Office of Responsible Research Practices for an evening of pizza served up with a helping of controversy. Have you ever wondered why researchers have to be trained and fill out pesky applications for any research involving humans? Curious about how researchers are still running into ethical problems today?
Also mark your calendars for:
SURI Closing Ice Cream Celebration
