You are invited to this conference on the Black Hills State University Spearfish campus.
After a brief keynote presentation and introduction, groups of 20 students will be
guided to visit the exhibits and interact with individual speakers during sessions
throughout the day. Speakers will present in the areas of Biology, Chemistry, Physics,
Astronomy, Geology, Health Care, Mathematics, Environmental Science, Sustainability,
and other STEM career opportunities.
By showcasing successful women as positive role models, we hope to encourage students
to take the math and science track through middle and high school and eventually pursue
an engaging and successful STEM career.
A free lunch will be provided to all students, teachers and chaperones at the BHSU
dining hall in the student union.
Keynote speaker information coming soon!
A list of participating schools will be available soon!
Volunteers are needed on the day of the conference to help with setup and to lead
groups around campus. Campus maps will be provided, and no scientific expertise is
necessary. Lunch will be provided.
For anyone interested in volunteering with the event, we are seeking help with the
following:
- chaperone student groups to/from their sessions
- provide information and assistance at help desks/cafeteria
- setup/take down the planetarium
