Triton Day is a day for admitted students and their families to explore the UC San Diego campus, undergraduate colleges, academic departments, student services, student organizations and endless resources. On this day, UWIP put on demos for visiting students and parents. Demos included newton’s cradle, 3D magnetic viewer, some ferrofluid on display and more! We also had a hands-on demonstration for centripetal motion which kids were swinging around and distribution of weight as people stood on wine glasses. We also had a poster describing famous females in science and their work. Overall, a very fun day!
