Academic accolades

Your interests, and what is "role model"?

Workshop Ideas

All counselors at Sigma are responsible for running a workshop. Propose a few workshop ideas in the spaces below. For each workshop, compose an abridged "lesson plan": What will you be doing? What topics will you cover? What materials will you need (if applicable)? What makes you qualified to teach it? What makes the topic interesting? It is encouraged that your workshop proposals focus on favor of science/math/engineering, rather than "crafts".
