Supported by the NSF S-STEM program, the project “Linking Community CollegeStudents to Engineering” offers funding to academically talented students of low income andhaving demonstrated financial need. The University of South Alabama is a public institution andhas reciprocity agreements that grant in-state tuition to students from coastal counties inMississippi and the Florida panhandle. While the LINK scholarship is not limited to studentstransferring from specified institutions, the majority of our transfer students come from fourinstitutions in coastal Alabama, Florida, and Mississippi.

Additionally, collecting responses from parentswho generally do not send their children to STEM camps may provide helpful insight into thoseparents’ perceptions about STEM and why they choose not to send their children to those kindsof camps. Gaining some understanding of that may help with the design of future camps toattract students normally not served by those camps.References:[1] Rozek, Christopher S. et al. “Utility-value intervention with parents increases students’STEM preparation and career pursuit.” Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences 114(2017): 909 - 914.[2] Bahar, Abdulkadir, and Tufan Adiguzel.

Since physics was not considered a proper topic for women, she did not show her trueability for some time. At the end of the Second World War, there were many new opportunitiesfor women. She was able to fulfill her true desire to study physics and received her BS inphysics. Her primary interests were in the field of computer use in industry. Her earlycontributions include banking systems and airline reservation systems. She founded a company,Redactron, and developed a system referred to as the “Data Secretary”, the first computerizedword processor to aid the work of typists worldwide. At the time of her

Like very often I make the mistake of using a plural verb for a singular noun. It’s hard. It doesn’t come naturally to me. I know it might be a small mistake, but I have that in my mind all the time. When I talk, I constantly remind myself to check my verbs - did I use that little ‘s’ at the end of the verb or not?. I fear what if I don’t get it correct during the presentations. Are reviewers going to doubt my capabilities? I am more confident in front of my advisor or others who believe I know my work and I am good at it. But when it comes
