The
Hill Country Science Mill is looking for inspiring, dynamic mentors who have studied or have careers in STEM. They are looking for people who will make their campers see themselves in those fields.
Mentors need only commit to two hours of time with the campers, talking with them about the STEM path they have taken. They would love for these mentors, where possible, to reflect the demographics of the campers. The campers are young, mostly minority, many will be first generation college students, female and male.
Volunteer to help!
