Project SEED

High School Student Research Opportunity

Project SEED is a program that places economically disadvantaged high school students in academic, industrial, and or research laboratories for eight weeks during the summer to learn what it's like to be part of a research team. Each student is required to work on a chemical research project under the direct supervision of a mentor. The student receives an educational award which is donated by local companies and then matched by the ACS. Students are selected based on of their interest in science, grade point average, school activities and letters of recommendation from their science teachers as well as being from a economically disadvantaged family.

The section thanks the following for their contribution to this program:

• Miller Brewing Company and Aldrich Chemical Company for their financial support as sponsors.
  
  
• Dr. Diane Munzenmaier of the Medical College of Wisconsin for serving as a mentor.
  
  
• Diane Szydel of Aldrich Chemical Company and Lance Lusk of Miller Brewing Company for coordinating this program for the past several years.
  
  

Contact Diane or Lance you wish to serve as a sponsor, mentor, or nominate a student for this program for the 2001 summer session.
