Student Profile: Laura Parker

Laura"Being on the softball team as an incoming freshman was an eye opener. I struggled last year, and being in a slump for part of the year helped me learn a lot about myself, and also made me realize how I wanted to change."

Science in general and biology in particular are changing exponentially: As the Red Queen said in Lewis Carroll's Through the Looking Glass, "here, you see, it takes all the running you can do, to keep in the same place." The only way future students can excel in the face of an increasing rate of scientific progress is to learn the critical thinking skills necessary for research and not just facts!
