Fogler Library: Writing a Research Abstract Workshop
Anne Marie Engelsen and Allyson Hammond
The most important part of your research paper is your abstract. Its purpose is not only to concisely summarize your work but also to grab the reader’s attention and convince them that your research is valuable and important. An unclear abstract can set the stage for confusion, whereas a polished abstract prepares the reader by telling them what to expect from your paper.
This workshop will show you how to perfect your abstract (with an emphasis on the UMaine Student Symposium’s guidelines). We will begin with an overview of abstract-writing tips, followed by group activities for practice.
About the Speaker Ally Hammond is a student in the Master of Social Work program. She also works at the Office of Research Development, where she assists with grant proposals, manages internal funding competitions and provides training and workshops on research topics.

Liquor, Lust and the Law Video
Sandra L. Caron
This 20 minute video made by former Greek Peer Educators strives to create a realistic setting for talking about drinking and the impact that it can have on students’ lives. Party scenes within the video depict situations that may look familiar to you. Watch carefully and you will see how a fun night can turn out to be trouble for someone who may not be aware of the many hazards of drinking. Pick up tips to avoid drinking pitfalls. The old image of a fraternity or sorority that resembles an “Animal House” is just that–old and outdated. Greeks are resuming their leadership role and are taking an active role in dealing with the challenges of student drinking while encouraging healthier behavior within the campus community.
