I had the privilege of watching the solar eclipse with Dr. Curtis Bennett who just happens to be the new dean of the College of Natural Sciences and Mathematics at California State University, Long Beach.  Here are some photos of our special solar eclipse watching party.  We had lots of fun talking and experimenting with different solar eclipse inventions.  It was great to have the dean commenting on the wonderful science that was going on in the sky and right here on Earth.   I love this job.
