The International Student Society is seeking performers for its largest event of the year, the Multicultural Fest, slated for Wednesday, November 28, in the CAW Student Centre.
The event is a celebration of cultures and traditions from around the world, says the society’s president, Florida Doci.
“It will feature electrifying performances from talented students, groups and guest artists,” she says. “This is a wonderful opportunity for you not only to showcase the culture of your country, but at the same time to receive recognition for your talent.”
It’s a simple experiment used to demonstrate some basic laws of physics, but the “fire tornado” was just cool enough to catch the attention of producers at the Discovery Channel planning to air a segment about a nationwide celebration of science.
Two organizers of this year’s Science Rendezvous will appear tonight – Tuesday, May 8 -- on the Discovery Channel’s Daily Planet to help promote the nationwide May 12 event.
Physics professor Steven Rehse and biotechnology student Florida Doci will demonstrate their “fire tornado” experiment, which is scheduled for display at the CAW Student Centre this Saturday.
