Cassandra Lew has been selected as one of our Undergrads of the Quarter for Spring 2014. \u00a0Cassandra grew up in Rock Springs, WY where she has lived her entire life prior to coming to OSU.\u00a0She graduated from Rock Springs High School and it was a high school teacher \u00a0(John Gamble) that peaked her interest in chemistry – commenting that she really enjoyed how applicable his classes were (She took 2 years of chemistry from Mr. Gamble).\u00a0Cassandra accredits much of her success to the\u00a0support and encouragement she has received from friends and family.\u00a0She decided to come to OSU because of its reputation as an excellent science school and the generous scholarships she received.\u00a0While Cassandra is only a freshman (one of the first freshmen to ever win Undergrad of the Quarter), she has already found her way into a research lab. \u00a0She has been working with Professor Sandra Loesgen where she loves how hands on the science is and the real world applications of it all. When describing her research experience to date, Cassandra said \u201cSandra has been awesome!\u201d \u00a0All her professors at OSU have been helpful. She particularly enjoyed Professor Chris Beaudry\u2019s O Chem course last term.\u00a0Cassandra is excited for the future chemistry classes she will have the opportunity to take at OSU. After graduation, she would like to pursue a career in forensic chemistry and work in a lab. We are so excited to have talented, enthusiastic students like Cassandra in our program. \u00a0Congrats to her for this award and we wish her continued success during her time at OSU!<\/p>\n
