Reading "Where the Sidewalk Ends" with 4 y/o. This poem reminds me of Phil Bailey. Definitely sharing with my students. @CalPoly @CalPolyCSM #CPFrostResearch

What is this garbage?

@andrechemist It’s times like this that I envy you all with your incognito personas

@STEMxicanEd I have been fortunate. Our club has well documented by-laws, a well-organized succession plan and officer organization. I don’t have to do much except approve purchases and event plans. Starting out probably needs more help getting organized, but once set, yatzee!

[Dr. David Zigler @ZiglerLab]

@STEMxicanEd I’m the advisor for our chapter. They are very active and well-organized.

@andrechemist My oldest has an alarm set and is super excited. Really spectacular sky tonight!

@MaritaBarth We had a big storm when we lived in NC. We learned about our clogged gutters when the water overtopped the gutters and started flooding the soffit and walls. Cleaning the gutters now saves headaches later

@DuttonChemistry @ProfFerrous @stephengdavey @pkennepohl @happykitten62 Very true! And it is up to the institution to not create a situation making service + teaching + research + family an impossible combination.
