2014 Dec 5

Taylor Fisher, of Emmett, was among 42 Saginaw Valley State University honors students who presented during a poster session Friday, Dec. 5.

Honors students organized into 12 groups, each researching topics such as genetics, medicine, psychological disorders and visual literacy. Then each group presented their findings during a public hallway poster session.

Fisher, a political science major, worked on the project titled “Causes of ADHD and Potential Effects on Education” with fellow honors students Michaela Hoogerhyde, Meagan McNinch-Stapish and Jacob Penkala.

The project was part of Fisher's class taught by Julie Lynch, SVSU associate professor of psychology..

SVSU's Honors Program comprises curricular and extra-curricular programs and activities for academically talented students. The initiative allows students to pursue their degrees while experiencing honors courses, seminars, research projects and social activities.

Honors students often are selected for awards at SVSU and generally continue their studies in graduate school.
