One of my earliest memories of UT was going to the Saturday Morning Science programs in high school, and learning about fun and interesting topics in the fields of chemistry and biology. Now, as a Biology major, these programs remind me of all the advancements that have been made and the steps that humanity is taking to better understand our world. Even though it challenging to roll out of bed at 9:00AM on a Saturday, I encourage you to attend one of these programs and learn about hot topics in modern science! And yes, a free breakfast is provided;) Hope to see you there!
