Welcome to<br />
The 2 nd Annual<br />
Kinesiology Research Day<br />
<strong>2008</strong><br />
Celebrating Excellence in Kinesiology<br />
Research<br />
Faculty <strong>of</strong> Human Kinetics
GREETINGS<br />
It is my pleasure to welcome you to the second annual Faculty <strong>of</strong> Human<br />
Kinetics Research Day. Students, faculty and staff, in the Department <strong>of</strong> Kinesiology,<br />
have collaborated to bring a variety <strong>of</strong> projects for public viewing. You will note that<br />
the room will have an air <strong>of</strong> pride and accomplishment as this completed research has<br />
stimulated so many different individuals.<br />
The keynote speaker, Dr. Bert Carron, is a very timely and appropriate speaker<br />
for such an event. His standing in the research community is well established and there<br />
are virtually hundreds <strong>of</strong> academics who have been advised or influenced by Dr.<br />
Carron, during his illustrious career.<br />
During Research Day, I hope you get the opportunity to personally thank Dr.<br />
Dave Andrews and his committee for their organizational efforts leading up to this<br />
event. With a record number <strong>of</strong> presentations and “the buzz” created by the event, it is<br />
clear that Dr. Andrews and his crew have taken care <strong>of</strong> every detail.<br />
Please enjoy the day! Research rules!<br />

Research is the life blood <strong>of</strong> education as it provides the knowledge and<br />
information shared by pr<strong>of</strong>essors and teachers with their students. Thursday, April 3 rd ,<br />
<strong>2008</strong> promises to be a day <strong>of</strong> sharing and learning for Kinesiology. It is exciting to see<br />
the interest in research among both graduate and undergraduate students and this is a<br />
testament to the outstanding mentoring provided by Kinesiology faculty members in all<br />
facets <strong>of</strong> the program.<br />
Once again, we have an outstanding guest speaker who has been one <strong>of</strong> the<br />
leaders in his field on an international basis. Dr. A. V. “Bert” Carron, from the<br />
<strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong> Western Ontario, has had a long and distinguished association with the<br />
Faculty <strong>of</strong> Human Kinetics at the <strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Windsor</strong> and I am very pleased to<br />
welcome him to Research Day – <strong>2008</strong>. I know that this will be an interesting and<br />
stimulating presentation.<br />
Once again this year, Dr. Dave Andrews, our research chair, has led his team <strong>of</strong><br />
organizers and has arranged a terrific slate <strong>of</strong> presenters covering a wide variety <strong>of</strong><br />
topics. On behalf <strong>of</strong> the department, I thank all <strong>of</strong> the organizers for their hard work.<br />
We brag about our broad based program and research day certainly confirms that<br />
boast. I urge everyone to wear their Research Day shirts proudly, not only on April 3 rd ,<br />
but throughout the coming year. What the Kinesiology Family has accomplished in<br />
research, under Dr. Andrews leadership, is remarkable. Best wishes to all participants<br />
for a successful and enjoyable day.<br />
Sincerely,<br />
