SURE: Articles from Past SURE Programs

Haikus for the SURE
Rachael Blackman, Kristan Hagan, and Eliza Nelson

Starting with the young
P.J. the real SLIM shady
with an anecdote


Speaking of which, Pat
a baseball analogy
it is like science

Cathy Quinones
the Purveyor of Science
teach us all you know

Science is complex
more than can fit in haiku
let’s discuss ethics

Never fabricate
be honest with your data
or sleep to the top

Who is an author
the PI and you of course
but not the lab tech

Blowing the whistle
scientific misconduct
let everyone know

Is it ethical
animals used for research
or choose me instead

A summer of work
this is what SURE students do
Yee haw for research


Living like the flies
looking through the microscope
virgins and white eyes

Find where the fish go
how do they migrate in lakes
track with GPS

Briarcliff Campus
putting floaties on the rats
hey shuttle come back

Working at Yerkes
you get poopie thrown on you
chimps are not monkeys

Going to the lab
what will my project entail
where is my mentor

Presenting research
the title is important
so are the figures

Just open your eyes
science is all around us
explore, research, thrive
