A Day of Exploration: Mann Middle School Visit to SDSU
Thursday, April 14, 2005
Fifty students from local Mann Middle School had the chance to participate in a day of exploration at SDSU. The purpose of this event was to highlight SDSU as an accessible community resource and to inspire these students to pursue higher education.
Led by SDSU students, they engaged in various activities facilitated by faculty and staff: art projects in an Art for Teachers classroom (Professor Litrownik), demonstrations in a physiology laboratory (Dr. Pozos), simulations in a visualization laboratory (Dr. Frost), a tour of campus by SDSU Ambassadors, lunch with a sorority and fraternity, discussion/art project with a group of Biology students (Dr. Martin), and a tour of the library (Gloria Rhodes).
