Panels comprising businesspeople, non-profit leaders, UNO alumni (not UNO students or faculty), and other professionals will be assigned to judge performances, exhibits, posters, and oral presentations that students have developed for an educated lay audience.

Their support and leadership help create a nurturing environment for student research and creative activity endeavors. Each student presentation is evaluated by several community judges.
