Creative writing? Physics? Why not both?
Juliana Worden came from an arts-focused high school and had never taken physics before. That didn’t stop her from enrolling in Merideth Frey’s classes (including a seminar on nuclear magnetic resonance), writing a paper on quantum computing, and exploring chaos theory as both a scientific discipline and a storytelling tool. With individualized attention and conference projects designed around student interests, potentially intimidating subjects become exciting opportunities. Professors help students find the edges — where disciplines overlap and new ideas live — and support them in contributing something genuinely original.
