- Summary
- A total of thirty-three 9th and 10th grade American Indian students participated in the program. Curricular focal points were environmental science, supported by courses and labs in mathematics, technical writing, and chemistry. The 1994 summer program was the second year of the environmental science focus. The environmental component covered four topics during the month-long program: drinking water, waste water, solid waste pollution, and mining reclamation. The overall goal of the project was to encourage a greater number of the targeted high school students to acquire the necessary skills to succeed in rigorous college academic programs and to enter science-based disciplines. Students participating in the program were involved in a rigorous daily academic program of formal instruction. Participants lived in the residence halls and participated in many aspects of college life, including planned recreational activities. Students were also involved in academic year activities to maintain a heightened awareness and interest in science-based fields. These goals were met and the program was judged to be a success.
