This issue of The Proceedings of GREAT Day showcases the engagement Geneseo students have with a host of contemporary issues, ranging from environmental sustainability measures to social awareness of disability, among other topics. The authors of these essays display their understanding of the larger world around them with the aid of literature, science, and sociological theories. In doing so, they explore exciting new perspectives and ideas, and come to thought-provoking conclusions. In its sixth year, The Proceedings of GREAT Day continues to publish creative and scholarly student work presented at the college-wide symposium GREAT (Geneseo Recognizes Excellence, Achievement & Talent) Day. The journal is available online at http://greatjournal.geneseo.edu.
Geneseo Recognizing Excellence, Achievement & Talent Day is a college-wide symposium celebrating the creative and scholarly endeavors of our students. In addition to recognizing the achievements of our students, the purpose of GREAT Day is to help foster academic excellence, encourage professional development, and build connections within the community.
