Preview Day — Friday, November 16, 2007. For students in grades 11–12. High school guidance counselors and teachers are invited to attend. This program is designed for students who are considering a major in engineering. Students will tour the engineering campus, meet current undergraduates, and learn how best to prepare as high school students for a major in engineering.
The LEED Scholars program provides academic, professional support and a regular social network for women and students of color in the college. Eighty students, on average, attend the monthly meetings. One hundred students receive annual scholarships ranging from 1K to 3K per academic year. LEED meetings serve as outreach to all underrepresented students and women in the college.
