Our Participants Talk About NITARP

  • Seebode

    [NITARP] is a fabulous experience – I feel like after several years I am understanding more of the talks, able to engage in a real conversation with astronomers, ask questions one on one, interpret more on posters – just feel more astronomically literate.

  • Sartore

    [NITARP] is an amazing program you’ve put together! I feel like you’ve given us the keys, and we’ve got a license to explore the universe.

  • Mccutcheon

    The NITARP experience was terrific from start to finish – well organized, informative, and unique.
