Ten seniors were chosen last month to participate in an exclusive ten week long opportunity with Rice's Catalyst publishing group. Energy was selected to work this pilot program with Rice in which students will work 1:1 with mentors for the rest of the semester writing a scientific article about a topic of their choice. Students, including, Chance Bednorz, Andrew Farias, Francisco Anaya, Fernando Sanchez, Abigail Parakoyi, Caio Carrugati, David Burbano, Avin Pasalar, Shawheen Attar, and Josue Martinez. have leapt at this unique opportunity. Both students and mentors were very excited to meet after school during today's kick-off meeting. Stay tuned for the release of their articles on Rice campus and at Energy in the upcoming months. Are you interested in writing and publishing an article with Rice? See Ms. Estrella for more details on how to become involved.
