Introduction to the black side.............

For a while I have been concerned that the black side of life and design here in the city of boston gets overlooked. In a city that is 51% minority with a Black Governor, why do we have to work so hard to know about all the exciting things that are happening in the city? Therefore the goal of this blog is to pass along information about events, activities, job opportunities and restaurant reviews from a minority perspective. The Black side or hidden side of life and design here in Boston is the scope of what you will find in the posts. And some occasional commentary will also make its way to the web. Enjoy!

Subject: Program at MIT

The Massachusetts Institute of Technology offers a free summer program for
current high school juniors who are strong in math and science. MITES
(Minority Introduction to Engineering and Science) is a rigorous six-week
residential, academic enrichment summer program for promising high school
juniors who are interested in studying and exploring careers in science and
engineering.

This national program stresses the value and reward of pursuing advanced
technical degrees and careers while developing the skills necessary to
achieve success in science and engineering. MITES is rooted in MIT's
belief in the importance of students from diverse populations to pursue
higher education and careers in these fields.

Funding from industry, foundations, grants, individuals, and MIT covers all
living and educational expenses for each admitted student. Students only
pay for their transportation to and from MIT.

Admission to the program is very competitive -- applications are due
February 2, 2009 and require standardized test scores, essays, and
recommendations -- so don't wait until the last minute to submit. See
http://web.mit.edu/mites/www/ for more information and on-line application
