Oh wow i forgot about my NSF S-STEM grant from 20 years ago that funded cohorts of first-generation students to attend our college- the students were from rural or urban communities and they learned so much from one another (as well as learning to do science!)

I have written letters for scores of undergraduate Biology students over the last 20 years who took part in cost-effective NSF-REU training programs all over the US. Many of them are now doctors, researchers, teachers, and/or science-aware members of the public!

I just came here from another site and I’m so glad I can leave that site and still view your things! I’m a big fan; thanks for your positive and encouraging content for all students.
