AMP-SP: 1998 National Conference of Black Physics Students; Lexington, Kentucky: March 5-7, 1998

该奖项将用于资助1998年全国黑人物理学生会议(NCBPS)，该会议将于1998年3月5日至7日在肯塔基州列克星敦与全国黑人物理学家协会(NSBP)举行的联合会议上举行。1998年NCBPS的主办机构将是肯塔基大学。1998年会议将是NCBPS连续第十二次会议。NCBPS年度会议的目标是帮助和鼓励对物理表现出兴趣和能力的黑人学生进入并完成博士课程，并开始与他们在物理方面的教育成就相称的研究、教学或技术职业。这次与NSBP的联合会议将使NCBPS的本科生和研究生能够在正式和非正式的环境中与大量成功的少数族裔物理学家互动。就NCBPS的目标而言，这种沟通的好处应该是巨大的。肯塔基大学将在为期一天的联合会议期间邀请公立学校的少数族裔学生及其教师参加，以提高该州年轻少数族裔对非裔美国人特别是在物理和整个科学领域的机会和成就的认识。

This award will help fund the 1998 National Conference of Black Physics Students (NCBPS) meeting which will be held March 5-7, 1998 as part of a joint meeting with the National Society of Black Physicists (NSBP), in Lexington, Kentucky. The host institution for NCBPS 1998 will be the University of Kentucky. The 1998 conference will be the twelfth consecutive meeting of NCBPS. The objective of the annual NCBPS meeting is to assist and encourage Black students who have shown interest and ability in physics to enter and complete Ph.D. programs, and to initiate research, teaching, or technical careers commensurate with their educational achievement in physics. This joint meeting with NSBP will enable the undergraduate and graduate students of the NCBPS to interact with a large number of successful minority physicists in both a formal and informal environment. The benefits of this communication should be great, in terms of the objectives of the NCBPS. The University of Kentucky will bring in public school minority students and their teachers during one day of this joint conference in order to enhance the awareness of young minorities in the state of the opportunities for and accomplishments of African- Americans in physics in particular and science in general.
