To spread the knowledge of Crystallography during the International Year of Crystallography, many initiatives are flourishing. In Tuscany, under the main frame of the "Progetto Lauree Scientifiche", the first crystal-growing competition for pupils of high schools has been organized. They will be instructed on how to grow a single crystal and produce good quality samples during a period of 2 months. At the end of this working time, the best crystals will be selected and the winning classes will be awarded during a public ceremony the 23rd May.
