Today was the last normal day of Sigma. In semilabs, campers finalized their projects including their Smart Houses and solving the mystery in forensics (IT WAS IRIS!) After a break at the high ropes course, the lake, and the game room, campers attended lectures about astrocytes, data visualization, and cryptocurrencies, and luckily they’ll be able to attend more tomorrow! After a pizza lunch and second semilabs, campers competed in the engineering challenge building mobiles!

After another somewhat rainy morning, campers began to finish up what they’ve been doing in their semilabs over the past few days. In the Unseen World of the Sea, students looked at fish under the microscope while in Surprises in Probability they learned about tree diagrams and played a counterintuitive probability game. After a break, campers headed to lectures about scientific writing, algorithms for streams, and quantum mechanics. After a filling lunch, campers went to their second semilabs and then headed to the Sigma tournament to compete in linguistics and applied science questions.
