Zone and Chapter: California State University-San Marcos

Project

Project Name: California State University San Marcos’s Aim for Diversity in Physics

Project Leaders: Jesus Perez

Chapter Advisors: Justin Perron

Project Description: Last year our SPS chapter took 120 students from a local middle school to a nearby planetarium at Palomar college. The students came from both underrepresented minority groups and socioeconomically disadvantaged communities. Our work sparked collaborative interest both outside and inside our University, so we hope this award allows us to exapand our reach and make this a recurring event.
