The 2007 Washington NASA Space Grant Reception and Poster Session, held in the University of Washington HUB East Ballroom on Sept. 28, brought together students from different institutions participating a variety of Space Grant programs.

Posters were presented by participants in the Space Grant Summmer Undergraduate Research Program (SURP); student interns from the NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory, NASA research centers around the country; a NASA Robotics Academy participant; private industry interns working at Aeroject-Redmond Operations and Tethers Unlimited Inc.

The student attendees represented the University of Washington, Seattle University and Seattle Central Community College. This year summer researchers included undergraduates and graduate students.

The annual reception also recognizes scholarship recipients and the donors who make these awards possible. Space Grant scholars also receive support from the Louise and Irving R. Donnergaard Endowment, the Sigurd Olsen Endowment and the Mary Gates Endowment for Students.
