Nathan DeLee

Year: 2002

Degree: Physics and Astronomy

Hometown: Kansas City

Back in the day: Nathan was part of the honors program and spent most of his time studying in Malott Hall. He was also in the Society of Physics where he was President, Vice-President and Secretary. He was also in the University band for a semester his freshmen year.

What he misses: Now a graduate student at Michigan State University in Astrophysics, Nathan says what he misses the most about Lawrence is Yello Sub.

What he is doing now: Nathan studies the structure of the Milky Way (not the candy bar.) Studies found that the Milky Way might be composed of an inner and outer layer. Nathan studies the stars and based on the brightness, tries to prove this theory.

What he says: “Know where the important forms for your department are and figure out how the University is put together. Everything should work out fine if you know that.”
