4th Texas Atomic Film Festival

All, Nuclear Engineering students at the University of Texas-Austin are holding their 4th annual Texas Atomic Film Festival.  They submitted an entry to the ANS Nuclear Cafe with all the details:

It's a wonderful student effort with the goal of conveying scientific (nuclear) information via short 3-5 minute videos.   Many of the topics discussed here are featured -- low-dose radiation effects; CP-1 history; public perception of nuclear, to name a few.  Please take a moment or two and vote for your favorite!

  UT-Austin is looking to expand the film festival to include entries from other schools next year.  The ANS Nuclear Cafe has featured the winning videos from past film festivals.
