Seventy four minority high school students with high ability or high potential will be selected to spend six weeks on the campus of Michigan State University studying mathematics and its applications and learning how to communicate about mathematics to ones peers both orally and in written form. The students will be entering 8th through 12th grade students from 29 school districts in Michigan which have been identified to have large minority populations. Classes will be formed with three levels of sophistication grouping the 8th and 9th, the 10th and 11th, and the 12th graders in the three levels. Each level will be taught by a team of three instructors who represent mathematics, computer science, and written and spoken communication. The classes will be taught in an informal mode with a special emphasis on mathematical problem solving using computer technology where appropriate. Follow up conferences will be held both on the campus and in the districts during the following school year to provide continuing support for the participating students and the other students and teachers in the district.

七十四名具有高能力或高潜力的少数族裔高中生将被选拔到密歇根州立大学校园度过六周的时间，学习数学及其应用，并学习如何以口头和书面形式与同龄人交流数学知识。 这些学生将是来自密歇根州 29 个学区的 8 至 12 年级学生，这些学区已被确定为有大量少数族裔人口。 班级将分为三个级别，分别为 8 年级和 9 年级、10 年级和 11 年级以及 12 年级的学生。 每个级别将由三名讲师组成的团队授课，他们代表数学、计算机科学以及书面和口语交流。 课程将以非正式的方式授课，特别强调在适当的情况下使用计算机技术解决数学问题。 后续会议将在下一学年在校园和学区举行，为参与的学生以及学区的其他学生和教师提供持续的支持。
