Some of Georgia State’s finest McNair Scholars, Amber Wimsatt and Isha Metzgter will be participating in the Southern Regional Educational Board (SREB)/Compact for Faculty Diversity Conference in Tampa Florida. The conference will be held from October 22 until October 26, 2008. It is no coincidence that these two brilliant scholars was selected to represent the GSU McNair Program at this conference because they both displayed such a dedication and ambition during the summer research program that warrants such a reward. Amber Wimsatt was awarded the first place prize in the oral competition; Isha Metzgter received the first place prize in the poster competition that was held at Georgia State University at the end of the summer program.
