Callie Barbeau to present at Spring Undergraduate Research Day at UW-Whitewater

2016 Mar 14

Callie Barbeau, a senior music major from Fond du Lac, Wis., will present at Spring Undergraduate Research Day at the University of Wisconsin-Whitewater.

The event, open to the public, is noon- 3 p.m. Wednesday, March 16, in the James R. Connor University Center Hamilton Room and second floor.

Barbeau's project is titled "Saxophone Quartet Plus: An Exploration of Music for Saxophone Quartet Plus Other Instruments."

"It's a celebration -- a chance for student researchers to share their work with the campus and community at large," said Catherine Chan, director of the Undergraduate Research Program.

UW-Whitewater is nationally known for its emphasis on undergraduate research. This event is a prelude for students who are preparing for off-campus presentations later this spring.

Chan will be taking about 40 students to the National Conference on Undergraduate Research April 7-9 at the University of North Carolina Asheville. Six UW-Whitewater students will present their research at the UW System's Posters in the Rotunda event, where they will meet with state legislators and the staff.
