This small grant for exploratory research supports a geochemistry summer program for underrepresented minority students to be based at Colby College. The goal is to expose two high school juniors to the excitement of geoscience research while building their formal mathematics, chemistry, and earth science skills. The program is unique from past programs in that the students and their high school teacher are all participants in the program. Students will be selected from the High School for Engineering Professions program or the College preparatory Magnet program at Scotlandville Magnet High School in Baton Rouge, LA. The students will be part of ongoing research at Colby investigating the geochemistry of the Belgrade lakes watershed. The summer program will be the launching point for the students senior-year advanced science courses. This experimental program may serve as a model for other partnerships between under resourced high schools and four-year colleges and universities.

这个探索性研究的小赠款支持地球化学夏季计划，为代表性不足的少数民族学生将设在科尔比学院。 我们的目标是让两名高中三年级学生接触到地球科学研究的兴奋，同时培养他们正式的数学，化学和地球科学技能。 该计划是独特的，从过去的计划，学生和他们的高中老师都参与了该计划。 学生将从工程专业高中或大学预科磁铁计划在苏格兰维尔磁铁高中在巴吞鲁日，洛杉矶选择。 这些学生将参与科尔比正在进行的贝尔格莱德湖泊流域地球化学研究。 暑期课程将是学生高年级高级科学课程的起点。 这个实验项目可以作为资源不足的高中和四年制学院和大学之间其他伙伴关系的典范。
