The 32nd Annual University-Wide Research Symposium
celebrates our environment of research excellence here at
Tennessee State University which has produced the synergistic
coordination of multiple undergraduate-research initiatives.
The programs for undergraduate research at TSU include the
Symposium, the Undergraduate Engineering Capstone Research
Projects, the Minority Access to Research Careers (MARC)
Program, the Undergraduate Research and Mentoring (URM)
Program in Ecology and Environmental Science, and the Tennessee
Louis Stokes Alliance for Minority Participation (TLSAMP). Many
successful TSU alumni conducted research as part of their
undergraduate education such as Jesse Russell (’72), inventor of
key cell-phone technology who served as the 2009 Symposium
keynote speaker; Levi Watkins (’66), leading cardiologist at Johns
Hopkins University Hospital; and Latasha Taylor (’04), candidate for
the NASA astronaut program.
Engagement in research and other scholarly activities has
a profound impact on undergraduate students. According
to S. Keith Hargrove, Dean of the TSU College of Engineering,
Technology and Computer Science, all graduating engineering
students complete the capstone research projects, and, over
the past five years, a majority of these seniors have excelled in
academics. This success is consistent with the findings of
published studies that have concluded that undergraduate
students engaged in scientific research tend to enjoy higher
GPA’s, effectuate greater retention in advanced courses,
elevate their technical and communication skills, energize their
self-confidence, and enter graduate education programs and
the STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics)
professions in higher numbers.
Celebrating Undergraduate Research
at Tennessee State University
“Research-based learning must become the standard for undergraduate education.”
Boyer Commission on Educating Undergraduates National Report
LaTasha Taylor and Marcell Pickens conducting undergraduate research aboard NASA’s reduced gravity KC-135 plane. LaTasha is currently a Lockheed Martin engineer designing the astronaut crew
compartment for the NASA Orion spacecraft and has applied to the NASA astronaut program.

In its 2005 publication, A Vision of
Research and Graduate Education, the
Tennessee Board of Regents (TBR)
recommended that each TBR campus
establish a Center of Undergraduate
Research. In this vein, Dr. Maria
Thompson, Vice President for the Division
of Research and Sponsored Programs,
created the Undergraduate Research and
Creative Activities (UReCA) program at TSU
which has a mission to advance the
student-centered research endeavors of
the University. The UReCA program
received initial TBR Access and Diversity
Initiative Grant funding in 2009 to
coordinate a STEM-focused research
journey for students through the six
disciplines of biological science, chemical
science, engineering, agricultural science,
physics, and astronomy. In addition, the
“Creative Activities” portion of the UReCA
program is a TSU initiative that supports
grant proposals for faculty from all
disciplines including music and art. UReCA
is a component of The Scholars Experience
program at TSU which is also a unique
network of university-wide student-
development programs focused on
creating the holistic scholar.
The acronym UReCA is pronounced
identically to the exclamation “Eureka!” -
which derives from a Greek word for
discover - accordant with the future of
research at the University. As stated by Dr.
Thompson, “UReCA supports the
University’s strategic integrative goal of
becoming a premier public research land-
grant university and a destination campus
in the region.”

Dear Colleagues:
It brings me great pleasure to welcome each of you to Tennessee State University’s 32nd annual
University-wide Research Symposium. I commend the Division of Research and Sponsored
Programs for bringing together many of the University’s most brilliant minds to engage in spirited
dialogue and discussion about the fruits gathered after months of laborious research in our STEM
disciplines.
Each year, I look forward to chatting with our faculty and student researchers about the exciting
projects they are producing right here at the University. This year’s symposium, themed
“Research: Celebrating Excellence,” proves to be even more special, as the program highlights our
greatest assets—our students.
In addition to the interaction our young research scholars will certainly glean from the research
talent assembled at this event, the opportunity to be commended among peers and contemporaries
in their fields for outstanding research is truly a hallmark of academia.
The dedication and persistence our student researchers will display throughout the week shows
that they too have made a commitment to meeting my challenge of positioning Tennessee State
University as one of the top-tier research institutions in the nation. Their creativity and
technological insight demonstrated certifies that the future of scientific advancement is in capable,
intuitive hands.
As you participate in discussions throughout this symposium, please remember that Tennessee
State University has a commitment to excellence in research.
Sincerely,
Melvin N. Johnson
President

Dear Colleagues:
Welcome to the 32nd Annual University-Wide Research Symposium showcasing our endeavors to engage
undergraduate students in scholarly and creative research.
The Symposium permits each participant to experience a week of interdisciplinary presentations wherein judges
decide competitive awards that span multiple sections of research pursuits. These research presentations are
delivered to the campus and community by our students under the collaborative mentoring of faculty which
yields both seasoned scholarship and competitive creativity.
Our Symposium theme is “Research: Celebrating Excellence,” and the sub-title is, “Undergraduate Research—
A Leading Perspective on Inventing the Future.” Undergraduate research is an essential tool of education
because education is a process of mentoring. The word education is derived from its Latin root words of
educare meaning “to rear” and educere meaning “to pull out.” As a process of mentoring in education,
professors both impart established information to students and rear these students to investigate uncertain or
untested matters, thereby equipping this next generation to create or to pull out more clarity of knowledge. The
nerve center of this process at Tennessee State University is the Undergraduate and Creative Activities (UReCA)
Program, which advances the continuing research mission of the University by coordinating the teamwork of
more than eight university-wide programs. The UReCA Program engages undergraduate students in scholarly
endeavors within all disciplines and supports faculty in working with these students to obtain external funding
for their research endeavors.
On behalf of the Division of Research and Sponsored Programs, we celebrate our environment of research
excellence which is produced by the synergistic coordination of multiple undergraduate-research initiatives.
Sincerely,
Maria Thompson, Ph.D.

The Research Symposium
A B R I E F H I S T O R Y
The Annual University-Wide Research Symposium at Tennessee State University is celebrating 32 years of providing
an opportunity for faculty, undergraduate, and graduate students to present their research. In 1979, the event started
as Research Day and it was renamed University-Wide Research Day in 1981. During the early years, only oral
presentations were given. Since 1995, both poster and oral presentations have been included. Also, in 1995, the
number of presentations had increased so much that all activities could not be completed in one day. Consequently,
the name was changed from Research Day to Research Symposium where there are now five days of activities,
including presentations from several speakers from various disciplines. Dr. Rubye Torrey, Assistant Vice President for
Research and Professor of Chemistry (Emeritus), was the first Research Day Chair (1979-1981). TSU honored Dr.
Torrey at the 2008 Symposium.
In 1979, the winners of the student presentations and their advisors were: Tyrone McKinnie (Richard Hogg, Advisor),
George Pruitt (Rudolph Woodberry, Advisor) and Karen Sharp (Sandra Sheick, Advisor). Faculty presenters included
Baqar A. Husaini (Sociology); Robert Taylor (currently Dean of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences, Alabama
A&M University); Asalean Springfield (English), and Sandra Scheick (Mathematics). Remarks were given by then-
Governor Lamar Alexander, Congressman John Bray, Mayor Richard Fulton, Fisk University President Walter Leonard,
Meharry Medical College President Richard Lester, and Vanderbilt University President Emmett Fields.
Over the ensuing 32 years of annual symposia, the following persons have served as Symposium Chairs: Rubye Torrey
(1979-1981), Jacquelyn Martin (1982-1986), Joan Elliot (1987-1994), Carolyn Caudle (1995-1999), Elbert Lewis
Myles (2000-2004), Elaine Martin (2005-2007), and Brenda McAdory and Valerie Williams (2008-2009).
The Dean of the College of Arts and Sciences (Wendolyn Bell, Bobby Lovett, William Lawson, and Interim Dean Gloria
Johnson) has supported the research symposium from its inception. In 1995, Maurice Mills (Director, Office of
Sponsored Research) embraced the vision of the research symposium being campus wide and being supported by,
not only the College of Arts and Sciences, but also by the Office of Sponsored Research with increased financial and
human resources. With Carolyn Caudle (Faculty Liaison, OSR) at the helm of the research symposium leadership,
activities moved to a new level. She re-established the presentation times to 15 minutes and introduced concurrent
sessions. The symposium reached a peak of 130 presentations during her chairmanship. Caudle instituted
advertisements in the symposium booklet from schools, departments and institutes throughout the University.
Caudle’s co-chair, Nannette Martin, and later Jovita Wells, assisted in the design of the Research Symposium booklets
and many of the advertisement pages. In 2004, Marcus W. Shute, first Vice President for the Division of Research and
Sponsored Programs, significantly increased the level of financial support for the Symposium and began the tradition
of inviting TSU alumni engaged in research careers to speak to students during the awards luncheon. The research
symposium booklets were given to all attendees and were used as a recruitment tool for students and faculty by the
University’s president, School of Engineering and other departments and schools of the University. The research
symposium booklet (or program) also became a means to showcase various research activities at Tennessee State
University.
Vice President Maria Thompson of the Division of Research and Sponsored Programs and Interim Dean Gloria
Johnson of the College of Arts and Sciences continue to support the chairs of the Research Symposium. Only the
research titles and authors are now published in the program booklet, while the abstracts and presentations are
published on Tennessee State University’s research website (www.tnstate.edu/research).

APLS is a multi-disciplinary, multi-institutional professional organization,
founded at TSU in 2007, focused on providing a more well-rounded college
experience to students in the Life Sciences. Through academic enrichment,
professional development, life science education and student advocacy, APLS
seeks to become an important resource supplement to its members’
undergraduate and/or graduate training. As of January 2010, APLS boasts a
membership roster of over 150 students, faculty and staff at Tennessee State
University, Meharry Medical College, Vanderbilt University and, most
recently, Middle Tennessee State University.
The APLS community outreach objective is to engage K-12 students from
limited-resource families and communities through STEM-based activities
and to provide public education in those areas. During the 2008-2009
academic year, APLS logged over 215 hours of community service and
engaged over 1700 K-12 students and parents at local community centers,
churches, and schools. The current APLS administration, under the leadership
of APLS President Christianna Howard, is poised to do some wonderful things
this year, both on campus and in the community. Students and faculty with an
interest in the life sciences, technologies or research are encouraged to visit
APLS at www.aplsglobal.org or email us at info@aplsglobal.org.

THE SCHOLAR’S ExPERIENCE AT TENNESSEE STATE UNIVERSITY (TSU)
The Scholar in U experience engages students more deeply in their learning and contributes to their intellectual, professional, and personal growth in
unique ways. The undergraduate student is challenged to include the scholarly experiences - leadership, service learning, research, globalization, and
pre-professional organizations - into their degree programs. Students develop competence in the principles of undergraduate learning to include, core
communication and quantitative skills, analysis, critical thinking, integration and application of knowledge. Accountability, morals, and ethics are
stressed through curricular and co-curricular activities.
The Scholar in U experience enhances the teaching and learning process that occurs during formal class work. These experiences build on TSU’s long
tradition and commitment to “Think, Work, and Serve.” The Scholar in U is a virtuous cycle of value creation for the student. Each module incorporates
qualified experiences, integration of knowledge, reflection, and assessment and will be documented on the student's records. The student's undergraduate
experiences include continuous intellectual growth; and they graduate with greater preparation to face global challenges.
The Scholar in U experience is distinctive because it intentionally uses experiential learning to prepare students for graduate school, careers, and
citizenship. It provides skills, knowledge, and experiences that are highly prized by employers and establishes the foundation for future leaders.
The Center for Academic Excellence in Intelligence Studies (CAEIS) is the program through which the U.S. Intelligence
Community assists Tennessee State University’s efforts to develop a diverse pool of analytical leaders; to positively influence
student interest in the intelligence profession and service to the nation in general; to facilitate students to become more culturally
aware citizens; to encourage the learning of a secondary language; and most importantly, to build solid U.S. citizen graduates who
are capable of serving the nation in any capacity.
