Notice of the 8th Annual Meeting

Senior Citizens Center, Cavalier
8:30 a.m. Breakfast
9:00 a.m. Meeting
• Annual audit report will be presented

• Door prizes
By order of the Board of Directors
Matt Foerster, Secretary
Wlhere ldhLe giirtb aunL00dl lb00o,ys sure
Area students represent, show thier science smarts
i
the National Science Foundation
titled "Women, Minorities, and
Persons with Disabilities in
Science and Engineering: 2011."
But, the NSF notes, "Overall, more
women than men graduate from
college with a bachelor's degree;
however, men earn a higher
proportion of degrees in many
science and engineering fields of
study."
Working to improve the
engagement of girls and boys in
science and engineering is Karen
Harder, the fair's regional director.
"A student who develops a science
fair project covers all the subjects
in school," Harder said. She is a
middle school teacher in Lakota,
which had 17 students
participating. "They learn art,
computer and graphic techniques
as well 'as English, math and
science. In addition, the students
hone their presentation skills with
classmates and, most notably, with
the adult judges drawn from the
scientific and engineering
community at UND. Participants
learn skills that will serve them for
life."
The students not only
investigate an idea with scholarly
rigor but also must hurdle the same
strict technical standards 'that
world-class scientists surmount to
GRAND FORKS, N.D. --
Alyssa Kemp of Cavalier, a
fourth-grader at Valley-Edinburg
Elementary in Hoople, was among
seventy-eight students who
presented their scientific and
engineering findings at the 53rd
Northeast Regional Science and
Engineering Fair at the University
of North Dakota Memorial Union
on Wednesday, March 2. Her
project investigated "The Effect of
Temperature on the Metabolism of
Quick-Rise Yeast."
Alyssa was in the minority in
the elementary division, grades 4
through 6, where boys
outnumbered girls by almost a 3-
to-1 ratio. However, a curious shift
occurred in the mix of boys and
girls who competed in the older
divisions. In the junior division,
grades 7 through 9, girls more than
closed the gender gap and
accounted for almost two-thirds of
the competitors. And in the senior
division, grades 9 through 12, girls
completely tilted the scale in their
favor with a 4-to- 1 ratio.
The number of girls in the
regional science and engineering
fair reflects the national trend of
more women participating in
science, technology,' engineering
and mathematics in the past two
decades,according to a report from
Elementary Division Winners
Junior Division Winners
Elementary Division Winners
get their work accepted by peers.
Projects and displays must pass
muster with an internal review
board, which ensures the welfare
of human or animal subjects used
in experiments. The review also
upholds safety standards for the
students as well as the audience at
the fair.
Running a regional science and
engineering fair is not chegp. "It
costs $3,500 to operate the regional
fair," Harder said. Substantial
financial support for the lair came
from Polar Communications of
Mayville and Park River. And this
year, student participation fees,
usually paid by the schools, were
covered by a UND and North
Dakota State University program:
the North Dakota IDeA
(Institutional Development Award)
Network of Biomedical Research
Excellence (INBRE), which is
administered by the UND School
of Medicine and Health Sciences
in collaboration with NDSU.
Harder said additional donations
are welcomed and needed in order
to continue the fair.
Some pretty heavy hitters
sponsor awards in each division
and for special categories: from
Intel to the National Oceanic and
Atmospheric Administration to the
four branches of the U.S. military.
The junior and senior division
awards determined who will
participate in the State Science and
Engineering Fair to be held April
7-8. 2011, also at UND. State
finalists in the senior division
move on to the International
Science and Engineering Fair in
Los Angeles: Www.society
lbrscience.org/isef/.
At the awards ceremony, with
her parents watching, Alyssa
bounded up on stage to take home
a first-place prize in the elementary
division. Her brother Wesley, a
fifth-grade student, was also a
winner. The Senior Division Grand
Champion was Vahid Fazel-RezaL
a Grand Forks Red River ninth-
grader. His exploration of
"Mathematical Flowers: Patterns
in Dots Generated by Intersecting
Points," earned him an $18,000
scholarship from Jamestown
College. Morgan Uriell, a ninth-
grader from Lakota, was the Senior
Division Reserve Champion; her
project, "talkin 2 my friends,"
garnered a $14,000 scholarship
from Jamestown College.
Before presenting the awards to
the students, Harder emphasized,
"Kids who are successful in our
fairs are successful in their lives."
