What are grads even supposed to do after graduation without scioly???

Try to be good lab assistants, put out decent undergrad research, host well-run tournaments, and coach Div A, B, or C, but mostly feel bad.

Fixed.

Fixed.

Do we not remember the events of November?

Point taken, but the majority of alumni-run tournaments are very well run (e.g. MIT, Caltech, Yale, Cornell, Valpo, probably more that I don't know about).

Good day to you all. Anyone know what's replacing Kinetics next year for Chem Lab? Trying to possibly get a friend or two started early.

Can't find any consistent cycle for that event's topics.

It seems bernard posted that the tentative focus for Chem Lab is thermodynamics and gas laws.

[Entomology]

It's already been somewhat discussed in this thread, but why is fossils rotating out? Why would the committee change that? it's been a consistent three year rotation for a while and I am determined to keep my trilobites and corals in rotation for as long as possible.
If anyone has committee contact info that would be great.

Remote Sensing.

I heard Time to Fly is a trial event this year. If it is around next year, I am going to do it so well! It also looks like a very easy event, you just have to memorize a ton of FAA regulations and things like that.

It's not in my committee, but I'm pretty sure the reason for the switch is to get Fossils / Rocks on the standard 2 year rotation schedule that virtually all the other events follow. They were a bit of an anomaly, which the committee is correcting.
