Posters must be presented on the day of the poster session. The proposal must be turned in to the instructor in class on the day it is due. The paper must be turned into the instructor's mailbox by 4:30PM (i.e., the time the main Psychology office closes for the day) on 15 April. For every day the proposal or paper is late, 10% will be deducted.
