Some of the student have told me that they want to apply for a Office of Undergraduate Research Grant of $1000 to support the research project. This exciting and terrifying because it is due in 48 hours and we don't have a clear experimental plan or design to reference for the proposal. I called the Director of OUR to bounce the idea and she was surprisingly excited and she believes we can work around the vagueness.
So the students have decided to go for a $1000 grant; we had a rush meeting to assign everyone roles to contribute to the process. I am frankly astounded but very warmed by the spirit and passion this group is demonstrating. Wish us luck!
