undergraduate physics students develop research skills, establish network
connections, and improve their soft skills and technical skills. My goal as
President will be to optimize the opportunities physics students have to
develop themselves into professional physicists. In pursuit of these goals I
would like to outline the goals over the next semester/year as president. </p>
