(24-25高一下·黑龙江黑河·期中)The Free Colorado-Based Educational Program
Brief introduction
Participants in Girls on Rock get to explore forests, hike mountains and sleep under the stars. But that is only part of the experiences young women seek in the free Colorado-based educational program. The program also provides them with the chance to carry out field research with actual scientists.
The group supports similar programs in the American states of Alaska and Washington, and in the countries of Canada and Switzerland.
Evelyn Cheng, an ecologist, and Megan Blanchard, a chemical ecologist, began developing the program in 2014. They were both studying at the University of Colorado Boulder from 2002 to 2006.
Application conditions
The young women have several reasons for wanting to enter the program. They want to meet new people, be involved in science during the summer break and face fears. Girls on Rock does not consider academic performance when choosing participants. Instead, interested girls are asked to explain in writing why they want to participate in the program.
