NOTE FROM DR. SHEPLER: I attended the San Jose State version of this program a million years ago (okay, 12 years ago) in 1998, and it was pretty amazing. I went in interested in nuclear medicine and came out with environmental radiochemistry on my mind, and that's what I ended up doing in graduate school. My fond memories are probably enhanced by the fact that it's where I met Dr. Mr. Shepler--yes I'm such a dork that I met my husband at nuclear summer camp :D If you have questions, please let me know!
