Today, the university’s Summer Undergraduate Research Experience (SURE) took center stage in Snow Family Grand Atrium! 🌟 Students from the School of Communications and across campus showcased 56 impressive projects that explored everything from sports analytics to global social issues. Here are a few #ElonComm standouts:

– Meghan Logue ’26 (meghanelogue) dived into “The Financial Impact of Group of 5 Conference Realignment: A Case Study of the Charlotte 49ers,” uncovering surprising trends in revenue and long-term media benefits of conference shuffling.

– Zeke Petrou ’26 (ezekielp11) revealed insights with “Evaluating Lineup Efficiency in Men’s Basketball,” a tool to help coaches make smarter, data-driven decisions.

– Merrie Byers ’26 (merrie._.byers), a cinema and television arts major, examined race and reconciliation through her forthcoming documentary, “Building a Bridge: A Documentary About the Friendship of Two Reverends United by Faith.”

– Samira Khalil ’28 (samiraswish), an Elon women’s basketball player, examined how national media outlets cover the WNBA in “The Attention Shift: A Comparative Media Analysis on Coverage of the Women’s National Basketball Association.”

– Emerson Baker ’27 (emer.baker), a redshirt junior on the Elon football team, analyzed athletes’ awareness of the House v. NCAA settlement in “Understanding the Impact: FCS Football Players’ Perspective on the House v. NCAA Settlement.”

A huge CONGRATULATIONS to all of the students and research mentors for their hard work this summer.
