UT STEM Competition
"Hi HSE Family!
Last Friday, 13 students went to compete at the UT STEM Competition on May 10th. It was the first time our students have competed in this competition, where Jose Torres, Nicholas Kalk, and Bryan Beltran won 4th place in the Natural Selection Competition!
The students competed in 3 categories: Natural Selection, Mineral Identification, and Experimental Design. Additionally, they were able to sit in on a chemistry lecture, where they saw a mini nitrogen explosion (and a stormtrooper). All in all, it was an eventful day at UT."
Victoria Wang Rossi | GT Coordinator
