During June more than 35 high school instructors from across the nation will be on the Texas Tech campus for a special agricultural science education course. The focus is on providing a high-level educational experience to enhance the rigor and relevance of agriculture, food, and natural resources subject matter, say officials of Tech's Department of Agricultural Education and Communications, who are hosting the academic event from June 16-26.
Ten students from Texas Tech's College of Agricultural Sciences and Natural Resources were on hand for this year's Latinos in Agriculture Leaders Conference in San Antonio. The students represented Tech's 'Minorities in STEAM,' an organization promoting the success of minority students pursuing careers and degrees in science, technology, engineering, agriculture and mathematics.
