2023 Fair Awards & Photos

March 14, 2023

Fair photos from this past weekend are now available! Click here for a look at photos from the full day of events… the final ceremony, judges meeting students with their projects, and the excellent workshops as they unfolded. Thanks to Kopernik, Cornell Cooperative Extension, all the SUNY Broome faculty, staff, and volunteers who made the workshops a success. The list of 2023 STSSF medals and awards is also now available.

Conducting controlled scientific experiments can be challenging, especially when your dog eats part of your experiment, as Jillian Howell’s dog did during her project on the effect of colored light on mold growth.

Side note: Information on the Central New York Science & Engineering Fair (CNYSEF) can be found at the CNYSEF tab on this website. Deadlines for this are looming, so do check it out soon, if you’re interested.
