This award will support at least 26 students to participate at the 2014 SACNAS National Conference that will take place in Los Angeles (October 16-18, 2014). The students' participation at the conference will be facilitated by a "Geosciences Roadmap to the 2014 SACNAS Conference Programing" document. This guide, available as PDF and app, will assist graduate and undergraduate students and professionals to better take advantage of the sessions that would benefit them the most. In addition, the PIs and collaborators will develop a "Geoscience Mentoring Handbook for the 2014 SACNAS National Conference". This mentoring guide will facilitate a consistent message from the mentors to the students, including constructive criticism and resources for students. Lastly, the PI will facilitate a conversation among faculty, geoscience societies, and industry on strategies for enhancing participation of under-represented students, in particular undergraduates, in Geosciences; a report from this conversation will be shared with the Geosciences community at large. The students selected to be funded through this award will come primarily from Tribal Colleges and Hispanic Serving institutions; they will be asked to contribute to and assess the guides that would be developed to support meeting participation.

该奖项将支持至少26名学生参加将在洛杉矶举行的2014年SACNAS全国会议（2014年10月16日至18日）。学生参加会议将通过“地球科学路线图2014 SACNAS会议规划”文件提供便利。 本指南，可作为PDF和应用程序，将帮助研究生和本科生和专业人士更好地利用会议，这将使他们受益最大。此外，PI和合作者将制定一个“地球科学指导手册2014 SACNAS全国会议”。这份指导指南将促进导师向学生传达一致的信息，包括建设性的批评和学生资源。最后，PI将促进教师，地球科学学会和行业之间的对话，以提高代表性不足的学生，特别是本科生，在地球科学的参与战略;从这次对话的报告将与地球科学界共享。被选中通过这个奖项资助的学生将主要来自部落学院和西班牙裔服务机构;他们将被要求作出贡献，并评估将开发的指南，以支持会议的参与。
