Showcase and Improv Program Reflections

As Freshman year winds down, and the Showcase and Improv programs have been completed, I have a better understanding of what those two were trying to accomplish, and with that, can offer an insightful reflection.

Though the Showcase was useful and quite fun for presenting to an audience outside our usual classmates, specifically for Chemical Engineers, I believe the showcase was nothing more than an empty assignment. It is difficult for freshman students who have just started their college career in a major as broad as chemical engineering to come up with methods within the discipline to better the planet, especially when 90% of our courses are general university requirements, and no seriously applicable ChE courses taken yet.

Improv was a lot of fun. It offered a way to decompress during stressful times of the week, and provided an alternative way to exercise the mind so we could handle the rest of our day with heightened focus.
