- Hello, I'm Jeanie Talbot.
I am the physics lab manager at
University of La Verne.
I'm in charge of the physics lab
and demonstration equipment
so like the ballistics, the gyroscopes,
the lasers, the heat engines,
electricity and magnetism,
all the really cool stuff.
I am thrilled to be able to work
at University of La Verne
because I did my undergraduate
degree in physics
at another small liberal arts college
and I think it really benefited me
in terms of the confidence
to ask questions
and delve deep into the material
and also to take what I learned in class
and use it to make experiments
and build something outside the classroom.
And that's the kind of experience
that I get to help provide to our students
at University of La Verne.
We have several physics student groups.
So we have Society of Physics Students
and Women in Physics
and they have a bunch of events
throughout the year.
So they get to play with
physics toys at their events
and they also have fun stuff like
field trips to indoor skydiving.
