May 3, 2025
All Day
,
This annual event engages thousands of middle and high school students in historical research, interpretation, and creative expression through project-based learning. Students in grades 6 through 12 choose a topic, conduct research, and present their conclusions through papers, exhibits, performances, documentaries, or websites. They can enter their project in one of five regional competitions in hopes of making it to the May 3 finals. The theme for 2025 is Rights & Responsibilities in
History.
Middle and high school students, along with family, friends, teachers, and judges from the History community will be on campus throughout the day. There also will be food trucks, a band, and other events in and around Welte Hall.
