Hey all!! This week has been awesome! Today we had lunch with Dr. Tu, the director of the program, and it was great. Everyone had a chance to voice their problems or concerns with COSMOS. I didnt have anything to complain about. The one thing I spoke up about was just an idea, not really a complaint. The only other thing I should have mentioned is COSMOS needs to do a better job advertising. They say that 300 people applied, but when you think about it, that's still not a lot. I think this program is AMAZING.....but I can see it growing in the future. I can see it becoming a nationwide program, and I want it to get to that level. I think this should be offered all over the country so kids everywhere have a better chance of getting in and so more people can experience math and science in the real world so they will want to pursue it. If they want it to reach this level, COSMOS needs to put itself out there. We have to get America back on board with the STEM majors in college. We are falling behind. COSMOS is an excellent way to do that!
Back to my experience here...The classes are good, I get so tired though because I am sitting in a classroom all morning after not having enough sleep. We went to the Science Center on Tuesday and we saw an IMAX movie. That was really fun; I love the science museum because it has all those hands on experiments. We also had a movie night in a lecture hall, which was an odd experience....Oxymoran...LOL!! Anchorman was funny!! I liked it. We are getting Chipolte's (spelling) tonight!! YEA!!! Okay, I have a lot of homework so I gotta go...that's all folks.....
