As a student run organization that values diversity, equity, and inclusion, we want to ensure that all students at the UVA School of Education and Human Development have the opportunity to be a part of the planning committee, reviewer, moderator, or tech support for the Hunter Student Research Conference. All undergraduate, graduate, online, and on-grounds students across UVA are welcome! The list of Committee responsibilities can be found here. You can sign up on the HSRC Planning Committee Interest Form here.
