Energetic endeavor

Funding support from the Ford Motor Company is making it possible for the Department of Natural Resources and Environmental Design to offer high school students starting their sophomore, junior or senior years next fall a special summer program that will explore a timely topic at a pre-college level: energy. The program goal is to give students a broad understanding of the origins and extent of energy production, consumption, efficiency and conservation. There will be demonstrations of how various forms of energy are generated, and experiments with solar energy, hydrogen fuel cells, ethanol and biodiesel production.

Two sessions are scheduled: one the week of June 25 - 29; and another July 9 - 13.  During each session, the program will meet daily from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. The application deadline for both sessions is Friday, May 31.
