NATURAL SCIENCES ENRICHMENT WORKSHOP

High school students
Participate in Cap labs

{F THE students in the science
labs at Capilano College looked a
litle younger than usual on May
12, it was because they were. The
college was hosting approximately
60 Grade 11 students from 14 high
schools for the seventh annual
Natural Sciences Enrichment
Workshop.

Each year the college invites top
science students from local schools
to the campus for a day to take
part in advanced labs in chemistry,
physics, biology and math/
computing science. This year’s
participants came from the North
Shore, Howe Sound, the Sunshine
Coast, East Vancouver and North
Burnaby.

Students took two labs — one in
the morning and one in the after-
noon — and what they seemed to
enjoy most was the chance to use
up-to-date equipment and to
operate it themselves.

“It’s not just a demo,” explain-
ed Sutherland student Lorenz
Freiberg after taking the physics
lab. ‘‘At school the teacher had
one laser for the whole class and
no one got to touch it. Here we
can use them ourselves. It was a
really exciting experience.’’

Karen Voon from St. Thomas
Aquinas School also enjoyed the
opportunity to work with advanc-
ed facilities in the chemistry
workshop. ‘‘It gives me an idea of
what people do in university,” she
said.

Students in chemistry performed
an organic synthesis of PABA
