Both my classes did their chat sessions this morning, while they are usually fairly apathetic about anything they don’t have to do, they surprised themselves by getting interested.  That alone is impressive.

The best thing is that they have seen (and were talking afterwards) about how so-and-so likes cats, and that guy is a musicians as well, and so on. Scientists are normal people who like pizza, but are also really into finding things out.  Actually quite like the students, really.  I guess that’s the point of the exercise, but it’s good to see.
