Florida Governor Rick Scott Wants To Increase STEM Majors In Florida

on October 15, 2011 in Science Education In The News

Florida Gov­er­nor Rick Scott wants to spend more dol­lars on Sci­ence, Tech­nol­ogy, Engi­neer­ing, and Math (STEM) majors at the uni­ver­sity level. “If a stu­dent wants to obtain a degree inTeachers use solar cells during STEM Teacher Training Workshop conducted by Dr. Diana Wehrell-Grabowski in Florida. Anthro­pol­ogy they bet­ter look else­where.” The state of Florida will begin to shift fund­ing away from cer­tain lib­eral arts majors at state uni­ver­si­ties to pro­mote STEM dis­ci­plines. Read fur­ther details in the Octo­ber 13th, 2011 US News Report by Jason Koe­bler. I have not agreed with all of Rick Scott’s ideas, but in this case the gov­er­nor is “spot-on” to pro­mote fund­ing STEM disciplines.
