Society of Physics Students Named Outstanding Chapter

The Society of Physics Students (SPS), also known as TCNJ Physics Club, has been selected as an Outstanding SPS Chapter for the 2004-2005 academic year. This is the first time our Physics Club has received such an honor. The award was announced by Dr. Gary White, SPS Director, who indicates "Less than 10% of the SPS chapters nationwide are so honored, about one per state. The selection is based on the depth and breath of SPS activities conducted by your chapter in such areas as physics research, public science outreach, physics tutoring programs, hosting and representation at physics meetings, and providing social interaction for chapter members."

Our chapter conducted activities such as fundraising, visits to museums, faculty-student social activities, departmental competitions, and organization of a very successful regional meeting. The Physics Club is hard at work trying to repeat this accomplishment this year.
