Iona Scholars Day (ISD) is an annual event to celebrate the scholarship and creative activities performed by Iona students. The day showcases faculty-mentored student work and allows students in all disciplines to recognize and appreciate each other’s work through oral presentations, panel sessions, performances, and poster presentations. All students are encouraged to engage in scholarly and creative work with faculty, and share their work with the Iona community. ISD projects may be initiated as part of a course or as independent collaborations with faculty.
In 2022, as former ITPS interns Gabriela Barreiro and Emily Varker participated in the “Exploring History Through Digital Humanities” panel as part of Iona Scholars Day. Both Gabriela and Emily previously worked as Digital Humanities interns in collaboration with the ITPS and the Center for Digital History at the Washington Library at Mount Vernon.
