Despite this large pool of a diverse and motivated students, Hoffman et al.report that an alarmingly low number of minority and female students complete two-yearassociate’s degrees in STEM – only 11.08% of Hispanic community college students in 2006(2010).12 Clearly, it is crucial that we develop and support the talents and intentions ofcommunity college students

She’s been invited back do pharmaceutical engineering research with Research Experience for Teachers at NJIT every summer for the last 8 years now, with her Project SEED students. In 2008 one of her research students became a Science Talent Search Finalist. He also won best in category awards at the Intel International Science and Engineering Fair two years in a row. In 2010 she was named a Society for Science and the Public Teacher Fellow, and served on the Advisory Council for Intel ISEF since 2012. Marie currently teaches three levels of engineering courses, that she designed, and coaches students doing science research projects for competitions.Dr. Howard S. Kimmel, New Jersey

come to illustrate how self-imposed decisions at one time can constrain future ac-tions. We know from a long line of psychological studies that when we make decisions in themoment, they are not always well thought out and may in fact be detrimental to us in the fu-ture 8,9 . And even when we make a decision beforehand, if it is too easy to break that decisionwhen it matters, it is an empty decision. Constraining our future actions in such a way that wecannot change that decision has becoming known as a Ulysses Contract (sometimes also calledSelf-Paternalism 10 ). The canonical example comes from the therapy of addiction, where an alco-holic will pour their liquor down the drain in a moment of clarity to prevent drinking at a latermoment of
