"In chemistry lab, we used liquid nitrogen
to float magnets. It was so cool, like magic!"
—KATHERINE McGARRY '13
"I had to rapidly cool a chemical sample from 1000˚ C
to room temperature. My hands were quite shaky, and the
hot crucible lid covering my sample fell from my tongs
into a rubber trash can. The trash burst into flames."
—MARISA SANDERS '13
"One bad day, I captured a rattlesnake in a bag
and placed it at what I thought was a safe distance from
where we would be collecting field data. However, when
I reached for a piece of equipment near the bagged snake,
it struck through the bag and unerringly sunk
both fangs into my outstretched wrist."
—HOWARD REINERT, PROFESSOR OF BIOLOGY
