Dragons attending the USAYPT at NC State this weekend

Mr. Drew Austen from the Science Department and eleven MLWGS student physicists will be at the United States Annual Young Physicists Tournament (USAYPT) being held at NC State University this weekend.

The USIYPT is an international physics research/debate tournament. In preparation, schools all prepare thorough investigations of the same four tournament problems. Tournament competition consists of “physics fights” in which presenters are questioned by an opposing team. The resulting conversation models the search for scientific truth as practiced at professional conferences.

Go, Dragons! Show them how smart you are.
