Scientific paper

Look to the stars to find a field of expansion for your physics department! I believe that it is both farsighted and practical - even for physics departments with limited offerings - to find opportunities for richer instruction and research experience for astronomy students. Such expansion can add life to a department and expand enrollment numbers. I present here an outline of the methods we used and resources we found to help us on our way to a program that generates excitement among the students and brings satisfaction and some pride to both faculty and administration.
