Commemorative Poster for the 20th Anniversary of the Meyerhoff Scholarship Program

Description

On April 4-5, 2008, hundreds of alumni, faculty and supporters joined to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the Meyerhoff Scholarship Program. The gathering centered around a scientific symposium including oral and poster presentations, panel discussions, and video recording booths for alumni to talk about their experiences in the program. Director LaMont Toliver explained the distinguishing qualities of the program: Over the past 20 years, the program has created strong foundations in a number of areas including but not limited [to]: the sense of family, a culture of high expectations, and environment of positive peer pressure, collaborations with UMBC research faculty that include solid classroom instruction and lab experiences in a variety of areas, and finally, a legacy of excellence that began from the very beginning."
