Cancelled due to COVID-19. The program did not involve on-campus students, therefore, the Chemistry Department was able to allocate endowed (restricted) funds to a new “Kieft Faculty Fellows” program. This program provided a summer stipend ($2,795) for Monmouth College faculty in the STEM disciplines to support undergraduate research efforts.
