=95 Help judge a Cambridge Junior High science fair! (3/25)
Going to be on campus over spring break? The Graham and Parks School,
one of Cambridge's 10 elementary schools, is looking for MIT students
to serve as judges for its junior high science fair. The judging takes
place on Wednesday, March 25 from 2:30 to 4:00 pm. Judges are
responsible for looking at student displays, talking with students and
filling in a score sheet. Extra information and directions will be
sent to judges prior to the fair. This is a great way to inspire young
scientists! For more information, contact Laura Sylvan,
lsylvan@cpsd.us. (Please CC apo-svp@mit.edu)
