"Science is part of everyday life. But the basic scientific principles and processes that underlay our daily routines often go unnoticed. How might a better understanding of the science benefit the individual, and perhaps society as a whole? Select and describe one activity that is conducted, or object that is utilized, in everyday life and explain the science behind it. Explain its significance in scientific terms, and its implications in political, social, historic, economic, and environmental realms, as applicable. Your submission must be scientifically and technically accurate, yet understandable by a readership with a general interest in and knowledge of science." 2003-2004 "Select one 20th century discovery, invention, proof or experiment in the biological or physical sciences that has had a significant influence on your studies. Submit a 2,500-3,000-word essay that describes your selection, explains
its relevance to your studies and discusses its impact on society today
and into the future. Your submission must be scientifically and technically
accurate, yet understandable by a readership with a general interest in
and knowledge of science." CONTACT INFORMATION Questions? Comments? Please contact: Barbara Kern
