You'll find the Flinn Scholars community in every nook and cranny of the Internet.

For starters, visit the Flinn Foundation page on Facebook, follow @flinnscholars on Twitter, and--if you're a Scholar yourself--join the Scholars group on LinkedIn.

Want a quick answer to a burning question? You can reach me via email at mellsworth@flinn.org.

And who is this writing, anyway?

In 2007, I joined the Flinn Foundation's communications team, writing about all of the Foundation's initiatives, including the Flinn Scholars. In 2012, I became director of the Flinn Scholars program.

I'm also a Flinn Scholar alum myself, from the class of 1993. After my undergraduate years in Arizona, I completed an MFA in creative writing at George Mason University in Virginia. Now and then, I do type things not entirely true.

Molecule imageWith regularity, we run into Flinn Scholars who like to build things: houses, companies, telescopes, world peace, those sorts of things.

The reputation is spreading. The other day, some of our friends at Ambature, a startup green-energy firm with headquarters in Flagstaff at the Northern Arizona Center for Emerging Technologies, dropped us a line. It seems they're looking for someone to build things.

Specifically, if you're a top-level materials chemist with experience building molecules atom by atom, they want you.

What would you be doing? You'll have to ask the Ambature people yourself.
