WISL DISPLAY CONTEST WINNERS

Anders Knight (B.S. '14), Jennifer Kraninger (B.S. '10) and Jim Maynard (B.S. '00) were the three winners of "The Same and Not the Same" display contest created by the Wisconsin Initiative for Science Literacy. The display dealt with chirality and mirror images and was developed by WISL Fellow Ron Perkins and placed for two months in the showcase near the Shain Atrium. Observers were invited to examine models, mirrors, and mirror images (including the observer's own) and answer questions about them. Anders, Jennifer and Jim had the correct answers, and each received a personally inscribed and autographed copy of Nobel Laureate Roald Hoffmann's book "The Same and Not the Same." Congratulations to them, and thank you to all who participated.
