Inspired Learning

Here's a quick pitch for my alma mater, Grinnell College. They've produced this great video to celebrate the opening of the new science center. I love seeing the students' enthusiasm for their own education, as well as their balanced approach to life.



About the video from Grinnell:
Grinnell science students describe their undergraduate research experiences. In order of appearance:

Ria Laureijs '10, Biological Chemistry (accompanied by Mike Weslander '09,Psychology)
Adhiti Kannan '10, Biology
Filippos Rotzer '10, Physics
Laura Simpson '09, Chemistry/Economics
Mikel Shybut '10, Biological Chemistry/Russian
Jingni Xie '10, Psychology
Sam Calisch '10, Mathematics/Physics
Katie Battani '09, Psychology

This video was produced for the October 4, 2008, dedication of Grinnell College's remarkable new science center, named after Grinnell graduate Robert Noyce, co-inventor of the integrated circuit and co-founder of Intel. The center is designed to reflect the college's active learning approach, in which individuals pursue knowledge as working scientists.
