A beautiful story about how one professor changed the culture of math for his students:

"He could simply make a conversation possible, and then listen with curiosity and openness. Slowly, as students shared, a mathematical community began to form."

(1/3) This past year, #Covid_19 has underscored the urgent need to support children and families in bridging the digital divide. Several families cannot afford computers, laptops, tablets, or broadband needed for virtual schooling.

(2/3) When the pandemic started, we pivoted to virtual and met our youth and parents' increased needs with our S.T.E.M.ulating Minds program. We are committed to providing families with the tools necessary to succeed during unprecedented times.

About one in four students were missing from a nationwide survey measuring academic progress during the #COVID pandemic, and those who were counted showed slowed growth in math. We need more #STEM support for our most vulnerable kids. https://t.co/w32JvYJcW8

Fresh out of this two year program, you make $20 an hour baseline salary and then the potential for six figure income in the coming years. It took me forever, with two four year degrees, to make $20/hour.

Also, the aviation industry needs more... https://t.co/qpN5P5qKU8

.@Boeing predicts 2M #aviation job openings in next 20 yrs. Most ppl fear math/science #STEMeducation & think this is low tech job. @SouthSeattleCC professors disagree & push for more students to protect our skies #Q13Fox
