Hampton University and the American Society of Limnology and Oceanography (ASLO) propose renewed funding for a program to increase the numbers of under-represented minorities electing careers in aquatic sciences. The program targets minority students, faculty and professionals interested in aquatic sciences, as well as majority faculty working at Historically Minority Colleges and Universities (HMCU). Participants received a free membership in ASLO and support to attend the annual meetings and special pre-meeting workshops. The present proposal will cultivate the development of past participants and incorporate new cohorts of students into the process during the years 2000-2004. Since the initiation of the program in 1990, over 300 students and 20 mentors have participated in the program. Participants were drawn from over 100 different institutions in the past ten years, with 31 different colleges and universities in the 1999 program alone. Dr. Cuker received a 1999 PEW Fellowship based on his work with this project.

汉普顿大学和美国湖沼学和海洋学学会（ASLO）提议为一项计划提供新的资金，以增加选择水产科学职业的代表性不足的少数民族的数量。 该计划针对少数民族学生，教师和专业人士感兴趣的水产科学，以及大多数教师在历史上少数民族学院和大学（HMCU）工作。 与会者获得了ASLO的免费会员资格，并获得了参加年度会议和会前特别讲习班的支助。 本建议将在2000-2004年期间促进过去参加者的发展，并将新的学生群体纳入这一进程。 自1990年启动该方案以来，已有300多名学生和20名导师参加了该方案。在过去的十年里，参与者来自100多个不同的机构，仅在1999年的项目中就有31所不同的学院和大学。Cuker博士在1999年获得了PEW奖学金，这是基于他在这个项目上的工作。
