  HBCU scholars inspire LHS juniors
Thirteen Lawrence High School (LHS) juniors accompanied by Majorie Cobin, LHS guidance counselor, recently spent the day at Educational Testing Service (ETS) in Princeton listening to presentations by recipients of the ETS Presidential Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCU) Scholars Awards. The university students each presented research they conducted while attending their college or university that covered a variety of topics, ranging from "Diversity Inclusion in Computer Science" to "The Fight for a Quality Education" to "Investigating the Interaction of Competing Adsorbents on Pt Catalyst Using Electrochemical Techniques." LHS students were able to ask questions after each presentation. The student's response was enthusiastic with ETS extending an invitation to LHS for next year's awards.
