Field Day 2011

This spring, the Creighton University Society of Physics Students (CUSPS) will again sponsor Physics Field Day, a day of activities and excitement for high school students. The theme of the 2011 Physics Field Day is "Energy of the Future"  The rulebook can be found here.

The day is filled with competitions that require understanding and application of basic physical principles. We in the CUSPS believe that physics can be enjoyed in a hands-on, competitive spirit. There is an event for everyone!

What kind of work is this?

What a piece of work is this?

By James Ross

 
Dedicated to Dr. Gintaras Duda, Creighton University
 
What a piece of work is this, that pains my hand and makes me list?
Scribbles on a paper screen are graphite black of lustrous sheen
What it portends no one can know, for we're but puppets in a show
O’er scratching of a pen we hear the jeers outside our den
The professors who guide our dance with mocking laughter watch us prance
As to and fro we spin and twist while notebooks slowly slit our wrist
For aught else can we abide but just to take it in our stride
Frantically we run the race with laughter burning in our face
And lest these pains we know no more, we tiptoe back within our door
There is work we've still to do, this maelstrom, this sickly stew
Through whirling mass of math and lab we saunter blindly, take a stab
