- The JMU Physics and Astronomy research symposium took place on
03/28/2009 in Festival. There were thirteen talks in all, covering a variety
of topics in astronomy, material science, and nuclear/particle physics. The
much-coveted prizes for this year went to Patrick McCauley, Greg Maust, and
Lok-kun Tsui. Thanks to Dr. Whisnant, here are some snapshots from the 2009 Physics and
Astronomy Symposium are

- The 2009 edition of the P&A Spring Picnic (April 18, 2009, Hillendale

- On April 1st (and that's no joke!) we had the Physics and Astronomy
banquet (thanks to Dr. Whisnant you can see snapshots of the banquet

for the whole College of Science and Mathematics. Both of these excellent
opportunities to acknowledge and reward the academic and scientific efforts of
our outstanding students. As announced at the award ceremony, our outstanding
senior, Lok-kun Tsui will be the Valedictorian
for the whole University. Congratulations, Lok-kun!!!
The 2008-2009 school year is history! Congratulation to all
our seniors! Snapshots from the graduation ceremony (thanks Dr. Whisnant!)
