The symposium is an inter-college event where students openly discuss the topics explored within each college’s respective theme.
Every RC student will give either a Presentation or a Poster - either as a group or as an individual project. Every RC student will also be an audience member.
At Registration, you will receive a name tag with your schedule on it. The Symposium is organized into two, concurrent, sessions: Session I: 1:40 p.m. - 3:00 p.m. & Session II: 3:10 p.m. - 4:30 p.m. Schedule overview is as follows:
Three Mile Island near Harrisburg, Pennsylvania was home to a nuclear reactor site. In 1979, a technological failure, along with a lapse in the knowledge of the employees working at the plant, led to one of the cores melting down. This disaster led to a reassessment in the regulation of nuclear power plants and sparked a debate about possible health and environmental impacts in the surrounding area.
