Project+Choice+Preference+Page

Back to Main Page =Please express your interest in a number of the following projects by inserting your initials next to each relevant project.=

===Under the "discussion" tab for this page, start a new discussion item with "(your initials)'s preferences" as the title (e.g., "TL's preferences"). Then describe any reasons you have for being interested in each project you've identified. "I don't really know, I'm just intrigued" is a fine reason, but so is "I plan to major in physics and have read books on particle physics since age 3".===
