Study Papers
This table includes the list of study papers completed by SD Questers over the last many years. In the past, you’d send a note to the 2nd VP and she’d send you a paper copy of the study paper. You can still do that. But, in the future, you’ll be able to download a copy of that study paper by clicking on the name of the paper. This project will take a little time to complete. So, stay tuned for progress!
