Archive: Graduate School Preparation Retreat, 2009 The Graduate School Preparation Retreat hosted by the University of Virginia from September 18-20, 2009 was another success with 29 undergraduate students registered from six of our partner schools! Dr. Howard Adams gave an inspiring keynote address, after which students worked diligently on their resumes and personal statements during breakout sessions. In addition to the faculty advisors who accompanied Alliance students to the retreat, two U.Va. faculty members, Professor Pate (Chemistry) and Dr. Martin (PI for VA-NC LSAMP and a professor in the School of Medicine), advised students regarding their resumes and personal statements. We were fortunate also to have 21 graduate student mentors working with students during the breakout sessions. During Saturday’s lunch the graduate student panel provided excellent leads on funding sources. On Sunday, after a humorous and informative presentation about strategies for approaching the GRE, a graduate student panel discussed the overall graduate school process and their own paths to graduate school.
