Alexis Jenkins definitely is very active from the start. Sports have always been her passion; growing up, you could always catch her outside at the softball field playing with her high school, tournament team, or family. This all was until she had an almost career-ending injury occur not just once but twice. Luckily, she could continue to play two years of college softball, but she always wondered why tearing your ACL, also known as your Anterior Cruciate Ligament, was such a big deal. Now years later, she is a Senior here at Millersville studying Sports Journalism. After graduation, she plans to work her way into the ESPN world to eventually become an ESPN Broadcast Journalist.

Robert Fisher is a molecular biology major and a senior at Millersville. They chose to do this project because operons are one of their favorite topics in genetics. They had always enjoyed how straightforward operons were. During this project that they realized that operons are much more complicated than the ones presented in class. This project has also provided real research experience, which is something they had been looking for as well. They believe this project will help with my experience in graduate school. Learning how to perform the skills they have outside of class, and attempting to troubleshoot different parts of this project, has given them an appreciation for how difficult research can be at times. They are certain that this project will help them make themselves more valuable as an up-start molecular biologist.
