I just received the information for the Kansas State University's EXCITE (EXploring sCIence Technology and Engineering) Summer Workshop. I have had students go in the past and have a fun (and educational) experience. Click on the link below and it will take you to their site for more information. I'll post a couple of pictures from when I went several years ago. I'll have copies of the flyer and registration brochure for those girls who are interested. Here's hoping this will help boost the STEM student enrollment.
