MaryKay Orgill (Chemistry and Biochemistry) was shocked by the news of the Oct. 1 incident on the Las Vegas Strip. How she reacted and some of her students' responses were featured recently in Chemical & Engineering News.
The morning after the incident, Orgill decided to talk to her class about how the mass shooting affected them. She brought up Martin Luther King Jr.'s quote, "“Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.”
from just two of the more than 80 responses she received that exemplify what those students took from her lesson.
