Questions are the lifeblood of the sciences.

When you get to college, whether it be at this fine university or elsewhere, please do not waltz into any science course thinking you know the answers.

It is the act of raising questions that moves our work forward.

So what are the most provocative questions facing us in the sciences today?

What still keeps us up at night dreaming, puzzling?

The creation of the cosmos?

Like, was it the big bang or something else?

Yes, that's a biggie.

In the front?

The origins of life on earth.

I mean, there are theories, Miller's primordial ooze, for example, but we still don't know categorically.

Yes, it's still a mystery.

No one else?

How about one of you lovely fools who think the back rows are an invisibility cloak?

Okay.

How about the gentleman in the unseasonably warm jacket?

Uh, I guess...

If I were a cloud, which kind would I be?

[LIGHT LAUGHTER]

Um...

I sort of answered more personally, but...

See, I'm going into environmental science, and, well, I sort of...

I just...

I think about clouds a lot.

[PROFESSOR]

And have you decided?

Which type of cloud you are?

Um, I think I'm leaning towards nimbostratus because I tend to lie low, and I can get dark.

I...

I don't mean cry.

[STAMMERING]

I just meant... sweat.

An out-of-the-box response, to be sure, but it's always great to personalize science.

Now, let's talk assignment schedule.

Every week you'll be expected to write a one-page response to the reading for that week.

We'll have quizzes periodically but never without notice.

Pop quizzes are a gimmick used by lazy professors to play "Got Ya" with their students.
