** This is one of our biggest 'displays' of the year! College Royal Open House is the largest university run open house in North America, and about 20,000 people visit campus over the weekend to watch tractor pulls, tour labs, do hands on activities -- pretty much anything you can think of! Let's Talk Science run a room of activities for all ages, young and young at heart alike! Come by to chat with a scientist, talk to the Let's Talk Science coordinators, or just try out our fun science demonstrations! **
