Hello, everyone in the SC200 class. My name is Yang Siyuan, and I am from China. I am excited to learn and discuss interesting science with you guys.
I did not choose a science major because that is not my interest. Since middle school time, I feel boring, exhausted, and sleepy when learning chemistry and biology(physics is Ok). However, I like to learn the development and controvesy of science, know interesting science facts, and link science with everyday life (I succeed only a few times due to my poor science knowledge). Thus I choose this course. I really desire to make friends with people with a different culture, plz commented me if you are interested.
In my previous comment I didn’t attach the youtube link properly. Hopefully this time it works
Hey Siyuan! I noticed you said you wanted to get to know more people so here is a video I found made by students about ways to get involved here on campus! Hope you find it helpful!

Hi Siyuan.
Nice to meet you! I’m also from China. And I feel science is boring too, but I think we will both like this class! It seems incredibly interesting! And I found watching videos helpful for learning things that we don’t like.
Here’s a little ted talk about science about human brains: https://www.ted.com/playlists/181/the_most_popular_science_talks
