What a week of #STEM in #SanAntonioTX! ???????????? Shout out to all of the leaders bringing #STEM to all students of all ages including San Antonio Hispanic Chamber of Commerce at their signature #Core4STEM event with THOUSANDS of middle school students over 2 days where I presented on the many DoD STEM and #DSEC resources available as well as the Military City USA Consortium #NDEP grant resources with the Palo Alto College grant PI Erron Gonzalez MS., and grant team Dr. Monica Ruiz, Ms. Patricia Simon, Daniele Delgado and Leighann. ??????The event is already scheduled again for next year due to popular demand once again hosted at #BoeingCenteratTechPort with support from our #DSEC partner #SAMSAT and Cliff Zintgraff, Ph.D. Had a great visit with our #MCUSA partner Dr. John Huggins of The University of Texas at San Antonio National Security Collaboration Center which served as the official host site for the kick off of #AlamoSTEMEcosystem and #DSEC Hub. (No pics of course because…top secret ??) But perhaps the best part of the week was the #MCUSA scholarship student celebration luncheon! We heard inspiring testimony about how the power of the DoD STEM #NDEPRC3 investment in #communitycollege students pursuing mission critical #STEM careers is changing lives and building the field of critical workers in Cyber Security, Advanced manufacturing with an eye on engineering and so much more. It was hard not to notice the number or #WomeninSTEM representing! And personally I was honored and humbled to receive a #MCUSA Challenge Coin. Thank you partners for an amazing week. I’m so inspired and in the spirit of the season so thankful I get to do this work. TIES Teaching Institute for Excellence in STEM STEM Learning Ecosystems Happy Thanksgiving ??????
