Hello everyone,

Welcome to week 3 of this fall semester. Keep up all the hard work!

This week for physics tea, we will have a game day, which will involve video games that Chris, our vice president, will bring. There will also be board games and snacks provided by SPS. Come join us and get a chance to wind down and connect with the department. 
SWiP Members
Don't forget the free Saxby's meet-up with a mentoring opportunity. If interested, please feel free to email me. Also, below I have attached the link and info for CUWiP, which is a society of women in physics seminar and is highly recommended!

Motivation for Week 3

 

As a physics student, you have selected an immense undertaking, and rather than shy away, you thrive in the overly complicated and overtly somewhat insane field. So naturally, walking around campus, you may feel as though you are above the rest of your peers, and while I am not allowed to state the sentiment explicitly, well, you are part of the greatest club on campus. Thus, with this, you are now entrusted with the highest degree of expectation and humility. As one great mentor said to his mentees,  "I expect the utmost from you." ( Matty Toole) 

Remember, kids, keep studying hard and come to physics tea.
