Undergraduate Research Writing Conference 2022

View our list of presenters

Welcome to the URWC 2022!  Our conference showcases a selection of the extraordinary undergraduate projects prepared for the Writing Program’s research writing classes during calendar year 2021. We think you will enjoy the projects chosen by the selection committee. We applaud how relevant the student topics were to the struggles and joys of this year in which we all tried to reestablish a sense of the normal – we look forward to the future leadership of these extraordinary undergraduates.

URWC 2022 Co-chairs

Arete Bouhlas and Debra Keates

This conference would not have happened without the work of the URWC 2022 Interns – Tarika Chandran, Russ Conroy, Alison English, Evan Leong, Arpita Mukherjee, Ryan Rodriguez, Andrew Sargent, Bochun Tang, Itixa Vaghani, and Shini Wang – and the Writing Program Fellows: Emily Banta, Sean Hughes, and Rebecca Lipperini.

The conference would not have been remarkable without the work of Writing Program faculty and staff who served as readers, mentors, prep session directors, and interlocutors:  Stacey Abate, Anthony Alms, Brie Ashley, Jonathan Bass, Alanna Beroiza, Alex Buzick, Carla Caponegro, Claire Celi, Elizabeth Decker, Donald Dow, Mike Duffy, Julie Flynn, Tim Hedges, Jordanco Jovanoski, Erin Kelly, Demetri Lallas, Snow Lee-Jones, Dawn Lilley, Jackie Loeb, Mary Ellen Maguire, Nancy Martin, Michael Mendonez, Joann Messina, Michael Monescalchi, Peter Molin, Raluca Musat, Sara Perryman, Lena Sandberg-Golden, Jennie Snow, Ali Sperling, Howie Swerdloff, John Warren, Kathy Wilford, and RAsheda Young.

Grace Kincaid provides our administrative backbone at every stage, and has done so for many, many years. Our online URWC is possible thanks to Lily Todorinova, Leslin Charles, and their staff at the Rutgers Libraries.
