Lisa - Lisa showed us how to fold napkins in different kidns of ways. They can be used for our thanksgiving tables! It was a new subject and aa fun presentation.

Andrew- Andrew showed us a presentation on LSD. It was really informative except there was one problem with his presentation but it was pretty minor. The study was done with Mescaline, which can have different affects than LSD, but he talked about LSD. I have read a few books on the subject, but according to other studies they are both psychadelics. so no big deal!

Michael-We learned about triangles. I was kind of confused and he didnt have a lot time though unfortunately.

Marty-Taught us how to take interview questions. There was some cool questions including the ATM question he posed to us. Awesome and very helpful!
