The National Science Foundation (NSF) has renewed our grant for a Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) program in the Cornell Laboratory for Accelerator-based Sciences and Education (CLASSE), which encompasses the Laboratory for Elementary-Particle Physics (LEPP), the High-Energy Synchrotron Source (CHESS), and the Energy Recovery Linac (ERL) project.

Such a program has been run at LEPP, often incorporating projects from CHESS and ERL, since 1998. Please see the details for the 2009 program, which will be similar to the 2010 program.
