Description
The Organization for Physics at Two-Year Colleges (OPTYCs) was funded by NSF starting July 1, 2022, and administered under AAPT. NSF abruptly terminated our grant on May 9, 2025 during its spring wave of cancellations. However, the two-year college community is resilient, and we have been continuing our programming. In this talk, I'll share what we have accomplished since grant termination, and what we're planning. OPTYCs is now partially funded by a grant from the American Institute of Physics (aip.org), and reserve funds from AAPT (aapt.org).
