In the news...

Wednesday was busy day.  During the school day I took a group of Washburn girls on a High Tech Girls Society field trip to Lockheed Martin to celebrate Women in Engineering.  We left at 8:30 and returned at 2:30.  They listened to presentations related to all fields of engineering, toured the facility, built electromagnetic motors, and participated in a tower building contest.  Whilst all of this was happening I was chosen to be interviewed by WCCO News.  The video can be viewed at http://www.wcco.com/video/?id=50389@wcco.dayport.com

Upon returning to school I took another group of Washburn students to the University of Minnesota Institute of Technology.  They are participating in a program called, A Taste of Science and Engineering, and will get a chance to work with college students, professors, and organizations to learn about the different math, engineering, and physical science programs at the U.
