The
Upward Bound Math and Science Center program includes a
Summer Academy at Oklahoma State University. The Summer
Academy is funded by the grant. The Summer Academy is a
six-week program that simulates a college experience. Coursework
focuses upon instruction in math, science, and computers.
Students learn from university faculty and researchers in
the classroom, the laboratory, and out in the field. Students
will also do coursework in a foreign language, composition,
and literature. Participants will be housed in a dormitory
on the campus in Stillwater during the week and return home
for the weekends. The OSU Upward Bound Math & Science
Center Summer Academy 2005 dates are June 5 through July
16. |

SUMMER COUNSELORS
 |
My name is Alex
and I am from Tulsa and majoring in microbiology with a
minor in Spanish. I've taken a lot of advanced/honors courses,
but I like to take time out and enjoy the unique classes
too (like cooking). I am an avid news watcher (I like to
keep up on current events). I read (mostly what people suggest
and give me). I try to run regularly. I like to travel.
I can sleep like a champ. I appreciate good jokes and pranks.
Presently, I am obsessed with changes in technology _ I
just built a computer and each day that passes, I weep because
its no longer top of the line. |

My name is
Crystal
and I will graduate from Oklahoma State University in May
2004 with a Bachelor of Science in Secondary Education.
Hopefully in the fall I will have a job teaching social
studies and coaching cheerleading at the middle school or
high school level. I have always enjoyed school, and I hope
to show you how doing well in school can make a huge difference
in your lives. I enjoy learning about current events, playing
tennis, cheerleading, volleyball, and watching TV. If you
have any problems, concerns, or just need to someone to
talk to, feel free to come to me! I look forward to a great
summer of learning and fun! |

My name is Erica
and I am thrilled about this summer and looking forward
to meeting all the Upward Bound participants. I attended
Oklahoma State University and graduated with a Bachelor

a Resident's Assistant and volunteered with a local youth
group. I am an avid OSU sports fan and attend as many events
as possible. Camping, hiking, rafting, and basketball are
all great loves of mine as well as movies, arts and crafts,
and eating foods of any kind. I hope to meet you in June
and find out about your interests! |
