Louis Stokes Alliances for Minority Participation (LSAMP) Programming
When: June 3rd from 12PM - 1PM EST
Who: Ms. Migdalia Maldonado, Ms. Chelsey Lamar, Ms. LaWanda Kamalidiin  

The Louis Stokes Alliances for Minority Participation (LSAMP) Program is aimed at increasing the quality and quantity of students successfully completing science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) baccalaureate degree programs, and increasing the number of students interested in, academically qualified for, and matriculating into programs of graduate study. LSAMP supports sustained and comprehensive approaches that facilitate achievement of the long-term goal of increasing the number of students who earn doctorates in STEM fields, particularly those from populations underrepresented in these fields. Join us on June 3rd to learn more about the LSAMP and its programs.
