NovelE's President, Liza Grudin, was appointed as the Chair of the National Society of American Military Engineers (SAME) Community of Interest (COI) for K-12 STEM Outreach. Liza previously held the role of Vice-Chair for Strategic Alliances. In her Vice-Chair role, she created interest in SAME's many strategic alliances by having them join the monthly webinars and present on their outreach efforts. The ultimate goal is to create low-hanging fruit for our many SAME members to engage in outreach in support of STEM.
The K-12 STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) Outreach Community of Interest's mission is to promote and support pathways to STEM degrees and STEM careers for K-12 students as part of the national strategic effort to produce more STEM professionals for the nation. The K-12 STEM Outreach Committee provides for the security of the nation by ensuring a robust STEM workforce. K-12 students need to be exposed to STEM activities, degrees, and careers as they move up the academic ladder. The committee will work with the network of Posts, individual members, sustaining members, service branches, and strategic partners to increase opportunities for STEM exposure for K-12 students. The COI will also promote the Society’s STEM programming at local, regional, and national events, as resources allow.
