A new year entails many old and new experiences, but there will always be one rising anomaly in midst of an ever-changing high-school environment -- WE Science Body. Like a seed, its roots have burgeoned into a towering tree, full of diverse branches, that continues to spread its influence to the youth.
For those reading this blog who don't know what WE Science Body is -- it's a multi-faceted science club that actively holds "outreaches", events where we present the youth around the area experiments involving all three natural sciences, and strives to instigate a passion for not only science, but the act of doing science through competitions such as MESA (Math Engineering Science Achievement) and PiE (Pioneers in Engineering).
| "The Founding Fathers" (I'm not neglecting the Mothers) |
Five years ago, this club was established as a means of promoting environmental awareness, but little did they [Founding Fathers] know that their efforts would have such an impact. Five years of success, five years of growth. Their planting methods certainly worked as the club has been strong in leadership, organization, and innovation. Not only constructing the "leaders of tomorrow," but also consolidating the scattered science interests into a unified entity of creativity.Surprising to think that this all started five years ago, nonetheless started at all... I wonder -- if it weren't for the efforts of 2008, would we be here in the first place? I don't think anyone would have had such spontaneous and collective motivation to make such a unique club -- it's befitting to really call them the Founding Fathers. Actually, I coined this term for them literally moments ago. No one is probably going to use this term since we're fairly close with the alumni who started this phenomenon. It's extremely rare for alumni to have such a connective bond with their alma mater; they still visit us often, and although they're years older than us, we can communicate with them as if they were our peers. Maybe it's because of their amicable nature that has resulted in such an effective club.
