*Hey Dr.Dahlquist, I do not know how I chose 18 for that question on journal 12, I think it must have been a typo or I was overly tired when doing the assignment. I changed it to 120. Also made correction on my answer to question 4 and shared my matrix and transpose with you on lionshare. | |||

Hi Dr. Dahlquist, | |||
Sorry I didn't post a question here, I misunderstood the directions. | |||
I've noticed that it is really hard to explain scientific idea to those not in the science field. After numerous discussions with my roommates, some of them still do not believe global warming is an issue being worsened by people. They also don't believe it is "as bad as scientists make it out to be". Is it an issue with scientists being unable to explain their knowledge to those not in the field, or is it just too hard to convince people that their long-held beliefs are wrong? | |||
Thanks! (also, I think I've made all the corrections you recommended to my page, but I'm still not sure if I'm doing the template right) | |||

Hi Dr. Dahlquist, | |||
What drew you back to Biology after studying Philosophy? | |||
[[User:Helena M. Olivieri|Helena M. Olivieri]] 01:10, 23 January 2013 (EST) | |||
:*I wouldn't say that I ever really left biology. I got interested in the philosophy of science when I was in high school and just briefly considered majoring in philosophy in my first semester freshman year. The biology major didn't start until the second semester and as soon as I took my first college biology class, I made my decision to major in biology and do some philosophy on the side. I ended up taking a few extra courses in philosophy in college and was fortunate to be able to do a specialized tutorial in the philosophy of science when I studied abroad at Oxford my junior year. I guess I thought I wanted to approach the philosophy of science from the point of view of a practicing scientist. | |||

Hello Dr. Dahlquist, | |||
Do you believe that you have encountered any resistance from your peers throughout your career due to being a woman in a traditionally male dominated field? | |||

: I don't think I would use the phrase "resistance from peers" to describe my experiences, but I will say that I have experienced some challenges unique to being a woman in my field.
