The students are back! And so is all the excitement and activity that comes along with them. To start the year off with a celebration (or two!) undergraduates enjoyed a special meet-and-greet "ice breaker" welcome back event with ice cream! Next, the Student Optics Chapter (SOC) and Women in Optics (WiO) welcomed everyone in the college back with an amazing and fun BBQ. Welcome back students!

Wyant College of Optical Sciences hosted the Christian Home Educators of Tucson - South East (CHET-SE) on August 28th, to tour the Meinel Building and Museum of Optics, as well as participate in a museum scavenger hunt and other exciting demos. Volunteers escorted the 42 adult and child participants throughout the building to see all that the John E. Greivenkamp Museum of Optics offers. A special thank you to the volunteers for hosting this group, and to the CHET-SE students and chaperones for visiting us at the college!
