Unique Community Outreach Opportunity The St. Charles School District has approached Fermilab with an unusual proposal. Superintendent Francis Kostel and St. Charles school officials would like to invite Fermilab scientists and engineers to visit schools and talk with students -- but not necessarily about science. Instead, they're interested in hearing from Fermilab scientists about their OTHER passions in life: cooking; making woodworking tools; opera; butterflies; Civil War history; building airplanes; growing peonies;
If you are a Fermilab scientist or engineer with a passion -- or even a
hobby -- that you might consider sharing with St. Charles students, please
write to today@fnal.gov.
This is the first time St. Charles has tried anything
like it, so time commitment, student levels, formats and so on are
very flexible. If you'd like more information, call Judy Jackson at x4112.
