Spring Break Cycle Trip To Moab Utah

Whitney Wins 1st Place at Regional History Competition

Whitney won 1st place at regionals for her exhibit on "Did We Have The Right To Test? Linus Pauling and The Petition For A Test Ban Treaty." The theme for this year was Conflict and Compromise. Her exhibit was based on Linus Pauling's research and the hazards of nuclear tests on the futures health and the environment. Linus was a double Nobel laureate. He encouraged a nuclear test ban treaty with demonstrations and speeches. The American government didn't appreciate his negative reactions. The government accused him of being a communist and took his passport away and made him testify at several senate committee hearings. It was an exciting topic. Whitney qualifies for the state competition in April in Boise. Road trip in April!
