Fiat Lux
Fiat Lux
A Celebration of Florida Southern College Student Scholarship and Research
April 16, 2025
Florida Southern College fosters an environment where students actively transition from being consumers of knowledge to becoming scholars who create new knowledge, insights, connections, and understanding. For over 20 years, our students have gathered at the end of each semester to present and discuss the scholarly work they have been doing in and beyond their courses.
The goal of Fiat Lux is twofold: to provide students with a platform for their ideas, and to provide the wider community a window into the creative and intellectual energy that pervades our campus. This year’s event provides a singular opportunity to publicly share the meaning and joy of scholarly inquiry.
Program
Fiat Lux will take place in The Ashley Gibson Barnett Museum of Art at Florida Southern College on April 16, 2025 beginning at 12:00pm. We encourage you to take part in as many sessions as you can. Enjoy the conversation!
