This is the wiki-homepage of the Illinois Math and Science Academy Chapter. We are similar to a University Chapter; however, we are a high school in Aurora, Illinois.

XOs on campus

There are currently 2 XOs on IMSA's campus, but more are coming with the mid-January order. If you are interested in playing with a machine, contact April-Hope or Scott Swanson. You can also just come up to ITS (CNS) sometime during the day, usually before 4 or 4:30.

  • 1 machine with Scott, owned by Scott
  • 1 machine with IMSA, floating around campus. Ask up in ITS for it.

Projects

Currently, we are working on a few separate experiments during our intercession period (week of January 7-11). (More to come tomorrow)
