The Society of 物理 Students

The College has an active chapter of the Society for 物理 Students, dedicated to celebrating the fun side of science and promoting STEM through community service.

一直被国家组织评为全国最杰出的分会之一, recent activities include building a human-sized hamster wheel, giant Newton’s cradle, hosting a science festival for local schoolchildren, and attending conferences of the American Physical Society.

Community Service: Randolph College SciFest

Every year the Society of 物理 Students organizes and hosts SciFest, a 3-day science and learning festival for local schoolchildren.

Randolph student and faculty volunteers lead activities, 展品, 实验室, and talks designed to get young girls and boys interested in and excited about science, 技术, 工程, 和数学(STEM).  

In addition to science activites for both elementary and preschool students, guests enjoy 国家 guest speakers, 圆周率日趣味长跑, women in science panel,  诗歌果酱, 乐高联盟, 无人机和机器人, 儿童爱畜动物园, 和更多的.

The free event draws thousands of children and families to campus every year.
