SUMMARY:Western Research Day
DESCRIPTION:WESTERN RESEARCH DAY:  Western Connecticut State University will host its annual Western Research Day (WRD) from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. in the Science Building on the Midtown campus. The event brings together students\, faculty\, and community members for a campus-wide showcase of research\, creativity\, and academic achievement across every discipline. \nThe day’s program will include opening remarks\, a keynote address\, student presentations\, and an awards ceremony recognizing standout projects. The event is open to the public. Learn more at www.wcsu.edu/wrd/. \nThis year’s keynote speaker\, Dr. Rebecca Stearns of the Korey Stringer Institute\, will share insights from her extensive work in sports safety. Her presentation will cover emerging findings on exertional heat stroke (EHS)\, including data from hundreds of documented EHS cases at the Falmouth Road Race and a long‑term study examining four decades of high school incidents. Stearns will also highlight the national reach of the TUFSS (Team Up for Sports Safety) initiative\, which has helped drive hundreds of state‑level policy changes to prevent catastrophic athletic injuries. \nFor more than a decade\, Western Research Day has served as one of WestConn’s signature academic traditions. Students selected to participate share work developed under faculty mentorship\, gaining experience in a professional\, conference‑style environment. Projects span the sciences\, humanities\, social sciences\, and the arts\, offering attendees a broad look at the university’s scholarly activity. \n
