Science Camp Opportunity
Attached, please find a flier and poster for B-WISER Science Camp for middle school girls. Buckeye Women in Science, Engineering, and Research (B-WISER) is a non-profit that began in 1990 and is designed for girls who will be completing 7th or 8th grade. Several scholarships are available for those who qualify for Ohio’s free and reduced school meals program. Financial aid recipients pay just $150 for the week, including room and board.
The camp provides hands-on experiences in physics, chemistry, geology, biology, and engineering. The residential program takes place on The College of Wooster campus from June 18-23, 2023. Please note that this girl-centered program is open to students who identify as a girl in any way. See our website for more information: https://bwiser.spaces.wooster.edu/.
Please post the attached poster for students and share this information with colleagues, especially those involved in 7th and 8th grade science/STEM education. We also ask that you consider including a notice in your school newsletter. I have included a JPG file which is best for emailing students and their families, but for printing, please use the higher resolution PDF files.
I appreciate your help in spreading the word about this special opportunity and encouraging the next generation of women scientists!
