💎📦 The @USCrystalComp crew is at it again! This time at @UCFChemistry , where Fernando @fjuriberomo and grad student Abdullah have been busy packing alum for our #2026USCGC crystal growers! 🧪 It takes a village to grow a crystal… and apparently a LOT of packing tape! 😂

That's a wrap on our Crystal Club at the Colchester Middle School. We harvested our crystals yesterday for #2024USCGC. The crystals came out great and the students grew our biggest yet, 60g! Many thanks to Jessica Frank for organizing the after school club with @KarenGlassLab.
