No, not me. Not literally, anyway– I’m quite happy with my current family.
Sigma Pi Sigma, the APS, and the AAPT are running a program called “Adopt-a-Physicist to help high school students learn more about what careers in physics are like:
Physicists and students interact through discussion forums for a three-week period. Before the three week period begins, the physicists and classes (via the teachers) each create a brief introduction page. After registration closes, teachers choose some physicists for their classes to interact with, preferably from different career categories.
The physicists each host a discussion forum where students dialogue with them about careers, educational level, current projects, and other topics of interest.
This structure lets students interact with physicists and learn first-hand what people with degrees in physics are doing. In addition to dialoguing with their assigned physicists, students can also read conversations between other physicists and students.
If you’re a physics teacher and this sounds interesting, you can register on the site, until September 8th. If you’re a physicist and this sounds interesting, they’ll be taking volunteers starting September 9th.
The email I got said that physicists can start signing up on September 16.
