I think most people carry misconceptions of scientists as a whole... but I also think most people don't even personally know an astronomer or scientist. The fact that I know and have worked with scientists is going to be helpful to share with students.
Student involvement in authentic research is an idea whose time has come.
This year [at the AAS] was so much different than last year [because of] having a poster to share with others!
