The Center for Slavic, East European and Eurasian Studies at The Ohio State University is pleased to announce the 2021-22 Ohio Undergraduate Russian, East European, and Eurasian Research Forum. This year the forum will take place on Tuesday, November 9 and will be held in a virtual format. The research forum will highlight the work of upper-level undergraduate students from Ohio who are conducting guided research on any topic in any discipline related to the Eastern European and Eurasian regions. Participating students will present their research in a 5-minute, pre-recorded visual presentation.
This year's presentations include:
- "Purim and Modern Purimshpiel: Historical Context and Literary Analysis" by Annalee J. Lynn (Wittenberg U.)
- "Sport and State Recognition" by Benjamin Maderstein (Muskingum U.)
- "Power an Corruption: A Comparative Film Analysis" by Katherine Yordy (The College of Wooster)
2021 Ohio Undergraduate REEE Research Forum Judges
- Dr. Christian Raffensperger (Wittenberg U.)
- Dr. Joanna Trzeciak-Huss (Kent State U.)
During the forum each student’s presentation will be played, then the two judges will ask each student a question about their research. At the end while the judges briefly leave to confer, there will be time for the audience to talk and ask questions about the presentations. Faculty, family members, fellow students, and members of the public are invited to attend this year's research forum.
