So I was on the luther website, and the spotlight was on a chemistry professor here. This was in his spotlight, and I was just overwhelmed by it. I'm not a chemist, I don't do things in labs but this goes beyond that. Maybe you have to know things about me, or whats going on, but just take this. 

“It’s exhilarating to get to the point where students aren’t deterred by the fact that 95 percent of things you attempt in lab will fail,” Brad says, admitting that he himself has caused three (small) lab fires in his career. “It’s not something the students have done wrong—that’s just the way things behave. Once students get to that point and beyond, they’re poised to succeed in research enterprise.”



"that's just the way things behave"
so brilliant.
