Black Lives Matter in Research

This annual event brings together a community of researchers and ethics professionals into the discussion of Black Lives Matter and its intersectionality with research design and research methodologies. Within the greater context of racism there is a need for exploration of how researchers, research administration and human subject professionals can work together to address inclusivity, beneficence, exclusionary design, participation issues, representation and more.

Student Meme Contest

This page documents a spring 2022 meme-creation contest related to the prompt, “What Does America Meme to You?” as well an accompanying public discussion of how memes subvert traditional means of communication (“Flipping the Classroom: Montclair State Students School their Professors”). On April 6, 2002, the students responsible for the top vote-generating memes will “deconstruct” their work for engaged professors and the audience. The event is intended as a participatory analytical space where student prize winners, MSU faculty and staff, and the public collectively contextualize and reflect on the disruptive communicative force played by memes in the United States today.

This contest is sponsored by the College of Humanities and Social Sciences and organized by Professors Elizabeth Emery and Christopher Kaczmarek.

Student Research Symposium

The Montclair State University Annual Student Research Symposium is a forum that showcases and rewards outstanding student scholarship and research by students at Montclair State University. The Symposium provides a venue for sharing research with the academic community, peers and the greater community through poster displays as well as oral and multimedia presentations.

Open to all undergraduate and graduate students, the Symposium aims to promote interdisciplinary research and collaboration in the hope of instilling in our students the importance of exploring issues from multiple perspectives. Proposals that cross boundaries among disciplines are thus encouraged. Similar presentations will be grouped together in regards to their “theme” rather than discipline or college derivation.
