Tucked away under the Health Center lies a glass door. A glass door that doesn’t lead to another o-chem lab or history class, but to a group of students who devote their time to the health and wellbeing of the rest of the 20,000 students who attend Cal Poly SLO. These students comprise a group called PULSE. PULSE: Peers Understanding Listening Supporting Educating. Each word describes exactly how PULSE serves the college. From daily consultations to campus-wide events, PULSE makes its presence known on

Introduction The California State Polytechnic University of Pomona student chapter of the California Geotechnical Engineering Association would like to thank you for your sponsorship consideration. Sponsorships allow for Cal Poly Pomona students to have an enriched learning experience and incorporate a deeper connection with our “learn by doing” philosophy. The sponsorship donations to CalGeo will allow for our members a greater opportunity of educational and professional development. Sponsorships

Properties and Synthesis of poly[p-2,5-dihydroxy-phenylenebenzobisoxazole] MANOJNA EDARA 306868401 GANNON UNIVERSITY Introduction: In recent years, poly( p-phenylene-2,6-benzobisoxazole) (PBO) fibers have become prominent in high vigor applications such as body armor,ropes and cables, and recreational equipment. The objectives of this study were to expose woven PBO body armor panels to elevated temperature and moisture, and to analyze the chemical, morphological and mechanical

As a current student at SUNY Polytechnic Institute of Technology (SUNY Poly), I have maintained a strong work ethic both academically and in my involvement with extracurricular activities.  My grade point average for the past five semesters range between a 3.17 - 3.83 which is a reflection of my dedication and hard work. I have made the dean's list twice and the president's achievement list twice.  I am majoring in Business Administration with a concentration in Finance and I am contemplating declaring

Introduction When you think of roly-polys you probally think of a tiny little bug that curls up in a ball. But then when you think of sea cucumbers you might think of a a big worm like creature. But did you ever think that they could have anything in common? Well they do! And it might be even more than you think. roly-poly defences Roly-polys or the common pill bug are common bugs. Sometimes you might even find one in your backyard! roly-polys are very riny bugs that roll

a local journalist gathered the townspeople to lobby for a state school in their town. They got the governor to sign legislation to establish California Polytechnic School. The first classes were on October 1, 1903. During the Progressive Era Cal Poly started out as a vocational high school. The school became the country’s leading undergraduate university in the West. In 1914 Robert Weir Ryder was given the role as director. Students of the university assembled a student body association and the

Thermodynamics Paper: Thermodynamics of mixing of poly(vinyl chloride) and poly(ethylene-co-vinyl acetate) Introduction The mixing of poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) and poly(ethylene-co-vinyl acetate) (EVA) is investigated for its thermodynamic properties such as enthalpy of mixing and glass transition temperature. Both the two pure polymers and the mixtures are investigated in terms of specific heat as well. The mixing of PVC and EVA are investigated because of the possible use of EVA as a plasticizer

Discuss the role of poly-glutamine (poly-Q) in Huntington’s disease (HD) Introduction: The gene IT15 (Interesting Transcript 15) (Zheng et al, 2010) codes for the protein Huntingtin (htt) which contains exon1 (XN1). XN1 is the nucleotide sequence that is within Htt protein. Polyglutamine (poly-Q) is a short protein fragment of more than two amino acids called a peptide that is within XN1. It is the consequences of the expansion in poly-Q that causes Huntington’s Disease (HD). HD is the condition

February 10, 2010: I was in a strange new environment with diverse people all around me. In my beginning years of intermediate school, I was shy and refrained from any interaction. Adapting to a new culture and language seemed challenging at a young age. I would remain silent in class and sit in a corner during recess. I knew I had to put in more effort to socialize with my peers; however, my flawed English prevented me from doing so. As a result, I struggled to make friends and spent many nights

Question Do roly polys react more positive to wet dirt with no roly polys or to dry dirt with roly polys? Methods We began by deciding how we wanted to conduct our experiment. We then agreed on using the choice chambers to show whether the roly polys would choose their preferred environment over social factors. To do this on one side of the choice chamber we put the roly poly’s normal environment which is wet dirt and on the other side we put dry dirt with about 5 other roly polys on this side. To
