Are you interested in boosting your resume/CV with valuable outreach/teaching experience? Adding some diversity to your graduate school activities? Looking for a fun way to give back to the community?

Come join us in helping students at our local Hilltonia Middle School learn about fundamental scientific concepts, while performing fun and interactive activities! We currently have two events planned in May for the week before IGP, so hopefully these don’t interfere with anyone’s travel plans. We are recruiting volunteers to help with a photosynthesis activity on Monday, May 15^th (Photosynthesis) and a frog dissection on Thursday, May 18^th (don’t worry, prior experience with dissection is not necessary).

The time commitment is extremely flexible with these events! Sessions are held both in the morning and early afternoon, and only last about an hour each. So if you are considering volunteering but only available for a short time, attending for part of the day, even just one session, is certainly an option!

 If you are interested or want more information about times, responsibilities, etc., please respond to the OSBP contact, Effie Miller (miller.8028@osu.edu) or the MCDB contact, Daniel Del Valle  (delvallemorales.1@gmail.com).
