the Test of Life

Today was an enlightening experience for our group. We noticed that it was a bit difficult for us to find some sort of physics connection to the issues that our initial interviewees brought up, so we decided to go out and interview more people. So we headed out to Midkiff and had a great interview with Mama Fuj.
Tiare took on the interview and asked Mama Fuj some great questions.Today was an enlightening experience for our group.

Tiare took on the interview and asked Mama Fuj some great questions. Our interview video is being a bit stubborn at the moment, so it'll by uploaded by tomorrow afternoon. 

The points and ideas that Mama Fuj brought up really got our group thinking about the issues that our school has with being more eco-friendly, hands on, and ultimately, preparing us students for what life has in store for us. Mama Fuj really hit home when she told us about how our school prepares us for the written tests in school, but fails to prepare us for the test of life. Thanks to Mama Fuj's interview, our group got the idea of focusing our project on leading our school in a more green direction, possibly including a class that teaches us about agriculture and nature, with some standard academics sprinkled in as well.

Special mahalo to Mama Fuj in Midkiff for allowing us to interview her :)
