Thirty high school students, parents, and teachers from the Hudson Valley visited West Point to attend the Cadet Seminar on Network Science, Nov. 15. The group was welcomed with an overview of the West Point Network Science Center and research it conducts, then Cadets Will O’Keefe, Lewis Black, Loannis Wallingford, Molly Prins, and Jake Moffatt gave brief talks explaining their projects. The purpose of the seminar was to give the high school students a chance to talk net...work science with near peers, and to learn more about applications of network science accessible to high school students. After the talks, Cadet Lewis Black, President of the Social Network Analysis Club (SNAC), shared with the students some of SNACs current activities and how the cadets have organized the club. SNAC represents the transition from taking a formal network science class, to using the same tools in independent research, and finally to an informal gathering of students engaged in further exploring applications of network science.
