I’m SO stoked to co-host this year’s fall Illinois State section AAPT meeting at Rockford University! We are running a joing meeting with Wisconsin Section and its going to be 🔥🔥 🔥 🌟 Renee Horton, our public keynote, is a NASA engineer with an incredible life story of talent, resilience and passion. She will deliver the public lecture at Rockford University's Maddox Theatre as part of the FORUM series. 🌟 Becky Thompson is the director of education for the St Louis Science Center and an author, most recently of the book Fire Ice and Physics, The Science of the Game of Thrones 🌟 Britt Lundgren is director of outreach for Sloan Digital Sky survey and an alumna of Auburn High School! 🌟We are running some great workshops as well. Dr. Horton will guide us through her steps for success, you can learn about integrating computational physics in your curriculum with PICUP and the Underrepresentation Curriculum Project. It is truly going to be a weekend of physics without boundaries!
