On October 28–29, KSC hosted the prestigious Council of Public Liberal Arts Colleges (COPLAC) Northeast Undergraduate Research Conference, which featured presentations, posters, and performances from over 180 student participants, making this the largest COPLAC Northeast conference to date. Thirty-four KSC students participated, presenting research that covered everything from the effects of toxins on frog embryos, to the effects of exposure to diesel versus biodiesel, and a comparative analysis of the Armenian genocide and the Holocaust.
The other students came from SUNY Geneseo, University of Maine Farmington, Eastern Connecticut State University, Ramapo College of New Jersey, and Massachusetts College of Liberal Arts.
