章 89: The research

Alyssa tapped her pen against her notepad impatiently as she waited for the research conference to begin.

She couldn't wait to hear what kind of research the various professors were working on. She wanted to get in on something pivotal and exciting.

She wanted to make a difference, and this was a good place to start.

Other students sat among the seats in the auditorium with her, chatting among themselves as they waited for the professors to show up and talk about their research projects that they were working on.

A certain number of students would be allowed to work on those projects with them after an application process.

Her eyes shifted to the side door as a few professors started to walk inside. Her heart started to race slightly. She was excited and nervous all at the same time.

These people were so smart and accomplished, and it would help her a lot to be able to learn from one of them directly.
