Quantum Causes, Dots, and Connections
My Time at the Women’s Conference for Planetary Science and Exploration—Through Hardship to the Stars
I’m currently a senior physics student at Coe College, and recently I had the opportunity to travel internationally to a conference in Toronto. I am Coe’s current SPS chapter president, and in the past few years I have planned many of our outreach events and conference travels, including a trek to the 2016 PhysCon. I’ve found that conferences are pressure cookers for collaboration and professional growth, and I encourage all undergraduates to attend at least one conference.
Ferroelectric Theory Meets Experiment in Washington, DC
Held at the beautiful Carnegie Institution for Science in the heart of Washington, DC, the 2018 Fundamental Physics of Ferroelectrics and Related Materials, or Ferro2018, was a gathering of the world’s leading researchers in ferroelectric materials. Between the banquet dinners and croissant-laden coffee breaks, I experienced a sharing and developing of knowledge in which few, if any, undergraduate students usually get the chance to participate. My goal was to learn as much as possible.

2017–18 SPS and Sigma Pi Sigma Year in Review
From research to outreach, fellowship to scholarship, and leadership to advocacy, the Society of Physics Students and Sigma Pi Sigma made big strides in 2017–18 toward providing opportunities for all students interested in physics and astronomy. As the only organization dedicated to undergraduate students interested in physics and astronomy, SPS and Sigma Pi Sigma seek to encourage the diverse interests of our community and find ways to channel the energy and enthusiasm into programs and resources that are impactful.
