Our Participants Talk About NITARP

  • Childers

    I did not anticipate how exhausted I’d get [at my first AAS meeting].

  • Odden

    Thank you so much for providing this wonderful experience for my students and for me. I learned a lot, and I had a great time. It was a wonderful to have the chance to work with David and Steve.

  • John

    Overall, I think one of my favorite parts of the trip was watching all of the students from around the country bond into a very productive team. They would help each other through the work we were doing to make sure everyone understood and was at the same place.
