WIS
"WIS" is Seton Hill shorthand for Women in Science--which is coming up on Wednesday. Each year, the science labs on campus are opened up to high school-age women who work on experiments during the day and then are served lunch in Lowe Dining Hall. During the luncheon awards are given to the women as well. Even their teachers attend!
I am not involved in the lab stuff (heck, I wouldn't know a Bunsen burner from a hole in the ground!) but I do enjoy talking to families during the luncheon. After lunch we offer optional tours to the attendees.
The sciences are particularly important on campus as we offer Science Quest each year and our chemistry club is nationally recognized.
