The ExxonMobil Bernard Harris Summer Science Camp (BHSSC)
is a free, academic program of The Harris Foundation, which takes an
active role in shaping education in students entering grade 6,7, or 8 in
the fall of 2009. Science, technology, engineering and mathematics are
critical to society’s infrastructure for the 21st century and preserving
that future requires an investment, such as the BHSSC, in our youth
today. This camp program was originally developed as a collaborative
effort of the Harris Foundation, the Houston Independent School
District, the University of Houston (UH) and the Southwestern Oklahoma
State University (SWOSU), designed to support historically underserved
and underrepresented students with limited opportunities.
The
national announcement for the location of the 2010 ExxonMobil Bernard
Harris Summer Science Camp will be made Tuesday, February 9. The student
application form with camp dates, criteria and other information for
each camp location will be posted on the Harris Foundation's website on
or before February 20.
