Escape the Lab!

Students from local schools engaged in an Escape the Physics Lab challenge during the 2024 Discovery Summit, sponsored by GUMSHOE (Georgetown University Math Science Hands-On Enrichment). Participants performed experiments exploring electricity and magnetism and used their results to solve a puzzle to escape the lab. GUMSHOE is a student organization that partners with local schools to provide tutoring throughout the year. Once a year, the tutees are invited to the Discovery Summit on campus for science activities with faculty and students from the biology, chemistry, and physics departments.
