* Thursday, October 28, 2004 *  
I got a scholarship! The Boeing/OMA scholarship. I'm working now at the College of Engineering for the EDGE program. I love my coworkers.


The sloth project is coming along well, I've spoken to Kathryn Hoppe, Bruce Nelson and Eric Steig about my project and the consensus seems to be to do Nitrogen analysis with the mass spec. Dr. Hoppe has told me how to treat the bone, and how to look at the bone; Eric will guide me in running the equipment and interpreting the data. (Hopefully Dr. Hoppe and maybe Liz will also help in the interpretation.)


I'm trying to get to TA^2 for Dr. Hoppe. She's very professional, so I think she takes things a bit too seriously (she didn't seem to be the kind of person to have a sense of humor at our meeting), but not only would she be a very valuable person to TA for, it would also be a very valuable class. I've never taken it, and have always wanted to, so if I get to do it, this should be great.
