The start of the semester & culturing transformed diatoms

The Fall semester has quickly begun at Clark University. While I was worried that Hurricane Irene was going to make move in day for the sophomores, juniors, and seniors messy, Irene barely inflicted any serious weather upon Worcester (we were lucky). I've been working at the bookstore the past two weeks where it has been very busy, as students have been scrambling to get all of their books on time. As a result, I kind of missed the first week of craziness on campus for better or for worse. But I always love the start of the semester--everyone is always so happy to see each other and be back on campus.

On Friday, we had our annual student activities fair, where almost every social club on campus from CUFS (Clark U Film Society, which shows movies on Tuesdays and Thursdays in our cinema) to ROCU (Radio of Clark U) is represented by student members. This is a great way for incoming first years to discover all of what Clark has to offer for our ever expanding extracurricular groups.

Additionally, I posted a new video on YouTube chronicling the start of the semester, Hurricane Irene in Worcester, and last but not least, my most recent lab work:
