bio entrepeneurs (8


On the day of November 12, 2007, Pauline Woods and Mary Berry estates donated an extremely generous gift of $1.1 Million to the Sam Houston State University of Biology. Both Pauline Woods and Mary Berry are former Texas public school teachers striving to make the world better for biology. With this benevolent donation, the University was able to give many more scholarships for students in the biology major; this amount of money was also able to benefit the socialogy program as well. Woods and Berry brought a great deal of help for the biology department, and Sam Houston State University will always be thankful. A big kudos for Pauline Woods and Mary Berry!
They're really helping to benefit the world of biology one university at a time and that is a very magnanimous thing of them to do.
KUDOS!

EYE LECTURE (=

Dr. Pamela Fong gave us a lecture about eye anatomy today. I learned many things about the eye that i did not know before. One thing is that we have a blind spot in the eye where the optic nerve is. Another thing I learned is that everyone has a unique design of the iris, just like our fingerprints. Another thing is that an expert can tell the general health of a person by just looking inside of the person's eye. It can tell the person's approximate age, if he/she has high blood pressure, and much more. The pictures in the presentation really made it easy to understand and enjoyable. Thank you Dr. Pamela Fong, YOU ROCK MY SOCKS.
