项目摘要

Hampton University and the Association for the Sciences of Limnology and Oceanography (ASLO) will continue to manage a program with the goal of increasing the numbers of under-represented minorities and under-served students electing careers in aquatic sciences. This program is known as the Association for the Sciences of Limnology and Oceanography Multicultural Program or ASLOMP. Applications for the program are encouraged from diverse students, some of whom are nominated by OCE REU PIs, and professionals interested in mentoring these students. Participants receive a free membership in ASLO and support to attend the annual ASLO Winter meeting and special pre-meeting workshops. ASLOMP will support about 60 to 80 students and faculty each year for an additional three years (2019-2021). The project leaders will cultivate the development of past participants as they incorporate new cohorts of students. The objectives of the program are to:1. Expose more diverse undergraduates from the full spectrum of ethnicities and backgrounds, and beginning graduate students to cutting edge aquatic science through fully supporting their active participation in ASLO meetings where they also present their own research.2. Link diverse students to opportunities for internships, advanced studies, special programs and potential employment through interactions at ASLO meetings.3. Continue to bring new cohorts of diverse students into the networks of aquatic scientists.4. Strengthen the significant presence of diverse scientists in ASLO that will form a mentor core for the ongoing recruitment of more underrepresented students into the field, and continue to be a source of diverse candidates for ASLO leadership positions.In 2013 the program embraced a broader meaning for multicultural, inviting all types of students to participate, while retaining an emphasis on building diversity through expanding participation of students from under-represented groups. This expanded approach goes beyond ethnicity and race, and includes those with disabilities, first generation college students, those from underserved rural and urban areas, veterans and non-traditional learners. These are not rigid categories and students that demonstrate other ways of bringing diversity are also welcome.The ASLOMP program has received much attention and many accolades. Dr. Cuker received the ASLO Excellence in Education Award presented in 2009 for his work with this program. Feature stories on the program have been included in a variety of journals, and results of an evaluation of the ASLOMP program were published in 2016.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

汉普顿大学和羊水学和海洋学科学协会（ASLO）将继续管理一项计划，目的是增加代表性不足的少数民族和服务不足的学生的数量。该计划被称为羊水学和海洋学多元文化计划或阿斯兰科的科学协会。该计划的申请受到不同学生的鼓励，其中一些学生是由OCE REU PIS提名的，以及有兴趣指导这些学生的专业人员。参与者将获得ASLO的免费会员资格，并支持参加年度ASLO冬季会议和特殊会议研讨会。 Aslomp每年将支持大约60至80名学生和教职员工三年（2019-2021）。项目负责人将在融合新的学生时培养过去参与者的发展。该程序的目标是：1。通过完全支持他们在ASLO会议上的积极参与，他们还展示了自己的研究。2。通过在ASLO会议上进行互动3。继续将新的不同学生队列带入水上科学家网络4。加强ASLO中多元化科学家的重要存在，这将成为导师的核心，以持续招募更多代表性不足的学生进入该领域，并继续成为ASLO领导地位的不同候选人的来源。在2013年，该计划具有更广泛的含义，可以使各种各样的学生参与各种各样的团队，同时促使人们在建设中的参与度不断扩大，从而扩大了各种各样的参与。这种扩展的方法超越了种族和种族，包括残疾人，第一代大学生，服务不足的农村和城市地区的学生，退伍军人和非传统学习者。这些不是僵化的类别，也欢迎展示其他带来多样性的方式的学生。阿斯洛姆（Aslomp）计划受到了很多关注和许多赞誉。 Cuker博士因他在该计划的工作而获得了2009年颁发的ASLO卓越教育奖。该计划的功能故事已包含在各种期刊中，对Aslomp计划的评估结果已于2016年发布。该奖项反映了NSF的法定任务，并被认为是通过基金会的知识分子优点和更广泛影响的评估审查标准来通过评估来获得支持的。
