MOUNT VERNON, IA (04/27/2017)-- Cornell College's 21st annual Student Symposium on April 22 served as a venue for some of the college's most accomplished students to share their work. Presenters included:

Aubrey Kohl of Bettendorf (52722)

The symposium, which has been an academic highlight at Cornell College since 1997, features students' original research through oral and poster presentations. Each student participant works closely with a faculty sponsor in developing the presentations. The projects, many of which are initiated by students, generally take several months to prepare.

One of the "Colleges That Change Lives," Cornell College in Mount Vernon, Iowa, is a national liberal arts college with a distinctive One Course At A Time curriculum. The One Course schedule provides students the chance to dive into their studies, focus more intensely on the disciplines of their choice, and learn authentically with the unique freedom to shed the confines of the traditional classroom to study off-campus, pursue research, or accept an internship--all without missing out on other classes.

Cornell has consistently been recognized as a "Best Buy" for "quality academic offerings and affordable cost" in the "Fiske Guide to Colleges." It is one of only 26 private colleges and universities in the U.S., Canada, and the U.K. that are a "Best Buy" in the 2017 edition of the "Fiske Guide to Colleges."
