Congrats, Natalie Kassar! Natalie is our Eyenstein of the week! (not that she's not special any other day)
If you've lost touch with Natalie because of our hectic schedule, we've got you covered. Let's see what's going on in Nat's world.
1. How do you feel now
that your reign as VP is coming to an end?
Being Vice President
of the United States has been fun but pretty stressful, so I’m glad it’s
ending. JK. I’m definitely sad that our year of being on OD Board is over,
mostly because it gave us plenty of great opportunities to get to know the
first years. It also sort of forced us to socialize during a year where hiding
at home and just sleeping whenever possible has been very tempting.
2. What do you have
planned during the 1 week off before clinic?
I plan to be on a
beach somewhere with a tropical drink in hand with all of my homies. Any
takers??? But really we (my life partner, Krista, and I) have been talking
about going on a cruise, so if anyone is interested let us know :-)
3. What are you most
excited for and dreading as a third year?
I’m most excited to be
in clinic more and the A100 rooms less! I am dreading Boards and having to
relearn optics and remember the steps to glycolysis again.
4. What are 3 things
we don't know about you.
I like taking pictures
of people sleeping (heh).
I am secretly married
to Justin Timberlake (I let Jessica Biel take the spotlight for me).
I was voted most
athletic in high school for being the quarterback of the football team okay JK
again, for playing volleyball and running track.
5. Who is your
biggest hero and why?
Jonathan because he
isn’t afraid to say how he feels no matter how irrelevant it may be, and he is
very passionate about the things he likes (turtles).
Dear Eyensteins,
Happy Week 8 everyone,
get ready for a rough couple weeks ahead! I’m getting a little scared for the
end of this quarter… I hope everyone is doing okay :)
Updates:
1.
Due to the upcoming
release of the Apple Watch, watches are now banned during our exam times. Other
universities are doing it too: http://www.buzzfeed.com/jimwaterson/yes-but-will-the-battery-last-a-full-day
a.
I told Dr. Chu that if
they’re going to do this to us that they should monitor the clocks more
frequently… he appreciates the tip.
b.
If you haven’t noticed,
the clock in our classroom has finally changed!! Still 5 minutes late… but I
guess that’s some progress?
2.
According to Campus Ops,
the outlets in A102 have also been repaired, can I get some feedback on that?
3.

5. We are also looking for EYEnsteins for the
position of Historian and Treasurer, please email me if you’re interested!
6. It has been brought to my attention that many
of our classmates are concerned about the remediation process/school policies.
It is a little hazy what the remediation rules are and how many safety nets we
have before we have to remediate a full course or year. I want to hold a
meeting this Thursday at 12pm with the Class Cabinet and anyone who wants to
discuss our school policies. It will be an open forum to anyone who has any
ideas or any concerns that should be brought up to administration (to be honest
I’m just as confused as everyone else). Let’s have it in our lecture hall.
7.
