ommunity is at the heart of our work in undergraduate research. In this issue, community is a leitmotif, as authors explore the impacts of undergraduate research on educational success and the innovative programs and assessment approaches that get us there. The collection of vignettes takes this a step further, exploring undergraduate research projects with local and international community partners. Community- connected undergraduate research is especially exciting for students as they grapple with community needs and see the results of their contributions.
