The following goals andassociated strategies are directly linked to community college transfer students: Goal #1: Enhance the success of our students through educational innovation. Associated strategy: Enroll a greater percentage of external undergraduate transfer students. Goal #2: Enhance organizational excellence by creating a culture of constant improvement.

Seeing the scale of these components and the way they interact and synthesize on a physical level and on a control systems level was quite intriguing.” – Fall 2012 Student “This project did enhance my learning experience. I tend to be a more ‘big picture’ type of person. If I know exactly why I’m learning something, it is often easier for me to learn the subject.

The aims of Bulls-EYE Mentoring are the creation of a more innovative STEM workforce and moreSTEM literate general population through effective outreach methods targeting underrepresented minorities. The initiative willaccomplish this through improving the STEM pipeline on two fronts: the empowerment of middle school students serving in the roleof mentees and the engagement of undergraduate students serving as mentors. The program intends to produce higher retention ratesfrom both populations as they matriculate through their respective institutions. What makes Bulls-EYE Mentoring unique is its use of mentoring to improve the interpersonal skills and intrapersonal skills ofparticipants in parallel with a

Specifically, I am focusing on the development of llama and alpaca manure biochars for the filtration of mine waste contaminated water sources in the Andes region of Bolivia. Biochars are created in the field using top-lit updraft stoves capable of low oxygen, zero emissions conversion of manures to biochar. These biochars are created during normal cooking activities; the biochar is then collected from the stove and used for filtration of drinking water. This project has proven to provide a very innovative and sustainable means of clean
