Workshop to Define Student Collaborative Climate Research

How is the competition doing (locally)
• Biosciences: a huge institutional and corporate infrastructure
to support student research. (Some question whether this
represents a “level playing field” for student science research,
or amounts to “corporate research” done by students.)
• Mathematics/computer science: a continuous, intensive
math curriculum from pre-school through university. (Today’s
students are lucky to get one Earth science course in 8 th -9 th
grade and maybe an “environmental science” course. There is
still debate about whether to accept such courses as “real”
science at the college/university level.)
