Presenters needed for Expanding Your Horizons Conference

Every year, MSUM participates with NDSU in the Expanding Your Horizons Conference for 7th-9th grade girls. This year’s conference is on Saturday, April 10th, 2010, and we are looking for volunteers to present workshops for this wonderful cause! Would you be willing to donate your time to provide workshop participants with an interactive, hands-on look at a career in your field? Even if your career doesn’t directly involve math and science, you probably needed those courses to pursue your own career path. Click the headline to read more.
