celebration.
Just a few of the interesting projects that were on displayare shown below.  They covered a broad variety of scientific subjects.  Students chose a
topic, formulated a question, an hypothesis, and designed quantitative experiments to test their hypothesis.
Shown are just a few of the student teams with their
mentors.  Students were given a certificate and a medal
for their participation.
