History of St. Albert’s Day at Creighton University

In 1997, faculty from the health science schools, as well as from the College of Arts and Sciences, expressed an interest in promoting the interaction between faculty scientists and students at Creighton University at both the undergraduate and graduate level. A series of discussions resulted in the first St. Albert’s Day celebration, which was held on November 24, 1997. Since 1997, the St. Albert’s Day poster session has been an annual event at Creighton University. In 2008, the event was expanded to include oral presentations as well as posters. Awards will be presented for the ‘best poster’ in three categories, as well as for the ‘best presentation.’
