Clare Brennan Introductory Post


Hi! My name is Clare Brennan and I am currently a sophomore studying Drama and English in LS&A. This summer I worked as a camp counselor in northern Michigan. Miles away from any sort of city lights,  I had the privilege of seeing the most spectacular night skies imaginable, every night. I’ve always had a respect for the universe and ever since my (very basic) observation projects from my physical science course in high school, I’ve been interested in discovering more about the patterns and phenomena that make up the vast space surrounding our little world. I took Astronomy 102 last semester and was completely fascinated by the concepts of the inevitable end of the star we rely on so heavily and the eventual fate of our universe. I am looking forward to engaging in discussions on the relevance of modern astronomical studies and how it pertains to us as students of the world. Judging by the wonderful emphasis on communication in this course, I don’t think I’ll be disappointed.
