Sigma Pi Sigma Honor Banquet - April 23, 2002

Paul Barton, Mike Koepp, Adam Guy and Dan Pfeifer. The guest speaker was Cecilia Vogel, "Switch Your Focus to Equalization - What nonlinear optics can do for you".

"Benefits of Summer Research for Undergraduates", Derek Strom, Pat Watts, and Karen Andeen - Thursday, Jan. 31, 2002 at 11:30 am in Science 304. Each of these physics majors spent about 15 minutes sharing their exciting experiences of doing research during the summer of 2001 - Pat at the U. of Florida and Karen and Derek at Fermilab. Here are some great opportunities in physics and engineering.

Working on an engine for the hovercraft project. This work is being done in the physics shop located in the basement of the science building. Club members had earlier built a working prototype of a hovercraft and demonstrated how it could move down the hallway. Pictured here are Pat Watts, Nate Atterberry and Paul Choin (seated).
