M. McLinn: Viewing Density Deviation in Hot Stars
I detail the problem solving process I used to develop a series of scripts which converted a data table into a standard-format file, producing a file viewable with a program called VisIt.

S. Bhattacharya: Connecting Physics Bachelors to Their Dream Jobs
Any potential job seeker who earned his/her Bachelor’s in Physics is always considered to be highly employable. Employers value the skills that any Physics Bachelor’s acquires and develops over his/her four years of college education. Shouvik Bhattacharya (a senior at Minnesota State University Moorhead) spent this summer as an SPS (Society of Physics Students) National Intern in Washington DC. He worked on the Career Pathways Project of American Institute of Physics (AIP) in College Park, Maryland. The Career Pathways Project aims to prepare better Physics Bachelors for Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics (STEM) career. This project was supported in part by a grant from National Science Foundation (NSF).
