With Black unemployment reaching historic levels, banks laying off tens of thousands and law school graduates waiting tables, why aren’t more African-Americans looking toward science, technology, engineering and math – the still-hiring careers known as STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering & Math).

FYI

At the Penn Museum in Philadelphia, we have launched Imagine Africa with the Penn Museum, a year long gallery project and community engagement initiative, and we would love to have you, your friends and family join us for some of the great programming we have in store this year!

Coming up Thursday, October 20 at 6 pm—we kick off our Imagine Africa Lecture Series!  Join us for a talk by Dr. Tukufu Zuberi, the Lasry Family Professor of Race Relations at the University of Pennsylvania, filmmaker, human rights activist, and the dynamic host of the PBS series "History Detectives." He'll share details about his newest film project, "Africa and the World" and discuss the challenges of making a documentary in Africa.  His multimedia presentation explores the power of documentary filmmaking and other forms of media in telling the story of the impact the world has had on Africa, and in turn, the impact Africa has had on the world.

Information on the series is here:

When you come for the lecture, you are welcome to  visit the Imagine Africa gallery project before or after the talk; the Museum remains open until 8 pm.

Achieving Scholarship Success Today!

Posted: 09 Oct 2011 05:42 PM PDT


Post previously published on BudgetWise Financial Solutions.
Since I wrote about how to go to college debt free in my previous post, I asked "Scholarship Queen" and expert, Shayla R. Price to write an article on how to obtain scholarships for college bound students today. Read on below.
So, you're ready to apply for college scholarships? The scholarship process can be daunting, from asking for recommendation letters to writing detailed essays. However, you have the power to come out on top. With your unique experiences and passion to pursue a post-secondary education, you can earn free money to achieve your goals today.
Creating a strategy, or game plan, will help you organize your scholarship approach in an efficient and effective manner. The key to your success is developing a routine to establish a habit and researching your ideas to create a winning essay. Here are a few techniques to get you started right now:
1. Track Your Community Service
People love giving to those who give to others. Service includes nonprofit work, church ministry, and everyday deeds. Create an Excel spreadsheet documenting your community service. What organization did you volunteer with? What was your role in the activity? How did the service impact others? Also, record the contact information of the person in charge of the activity; you may have to ask him or her for a recommendation letter in the future.
2. Search for Scholarships
Locate eligible scholarships on websites, like Fastweb.com, ScholarshipExperts.com, and Scholarships.com.. Create a Facebook page dedicated to asking people to post scholarships on your wall. Consider using your Twitter account to find scholarships; follow these gurus: @stlvolunteen and @scholarsgrants.
3. Write a Great Essay
Read the scholarship essay question carefully. Also, make sure you read the official rules, or the fine print. Are the judges looking for creativity or originality? If so, give them what they want. Answer the essay question by telling a detailed story, adding research from outside sources, and including your community service. Then, ask for help from a tutor, librarian, or English teacher to receive feedback.
Remember, you will succeed by sticking to a plan and consistently using the resources above. You have to develop your own scholarship regimen, enlist the help of others, and keep applying despite any rejection letters. I believe in you. Achieve scholarship success today!

How are the Weblos II Doing @ Camp HART?


Wonderful!

We just have a few small problems...

  • Andre is hungry and wants more food...
  • Jordan is mad because Andre at all the breakfast...
  • Joshua forget his underwear...
  • Eric forgot his toothbrush and soap...
  • Somehow Donovan drop his stuff out of either my car or Mr. Anthony, however his Dad assures he will retrieve it by tomorrow before we reach the church....
  • And we only lost ONE of the Ruiz brothers, however the one still with us insist he is the favorite...
  • Leader Darwin was extremely late and forgot the coffee!

None of the above is true (except Darwin being late),
and your scouts are having a great time!
