Faculty Research Forum 2004

The high quality of St. John's faculty is one of our University's greatest assets. In April, our faculty shared their research with their on-campus colleagues as part of Faculty Research Forum 2004.

A Community of Researchers
A high point of St. John's Research Month activities, the annual Faculty Forum allows professors to display their research to their peers. Other professors have an opportunity to discuss the work in a relaxed setting.

View below samples of the outstanding work featured at Faculty Forum 2004.
