The Club |
The Science and Mathematics Club is comprised of approximately 30 members each with various educational backgrounds. As a club, our goal is to promote a healthy, apolitical, non-biased, non-prejudice atmosphere open to all members of the student body. The club encourages members to seek out guest with informative and educational subject matter to speak at club sponsored lectures. Each member of the club is required to donate two hours a week towards the sale of our main source of revenue, coffee. The club uses the generated income to maintain the Coffee Table as well as to fund club sanctioned activities, events, and trips. |
The Adventures |
Each semester the club embarks on as many adventures as possible. Local adventures involve tours of the local PG & E plant, tours of the Mad River Brewery, and tours of many local industries. Each semester the club also embarks upon one prominent adventure. The fall trip usually heads to the San Francisco Bay area with visits to the Exploratorium, The Lawrence Hall of Science, and Paramount's Great America (to study acceleration due to gravity of course). The spring trip usually heads to Mt. Ashland, in Ashland Oregon, for the advanced study of the gravitational constant (G) with a relatively small coefficient of static friction. The ski trip, by far, is the most popular trip with the day on Mt. Ashland and the evening enjoying a Shakespearean play. |
