CMN--Education/STEM Related

Please forward on to your listservs.


The College of Menominee Nation has a great new project funded by USDA and
they are looking for a new employee to work as a liaison across CMN, UW
Madison, and the Menominee Community to help train classroom teachers and
strengthen their classroom curriculum to help develop more culturally-based
STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) educational materials for
grades 6-12.  The official UW media release is here:
http://ecals.cals.wisc.edu/highlights/2011/02/07/new-partnership-aims-to-prepare-rural-youth-for-bioenergy-related-careers/.
CMN has asked me to send this out to contacts I have so please email me if
you have any questions.  I am the evaluator of the grant and I also
contributed to writing the grant.

UW Madison is the administrator of this $4.7 million dollar USDA grant and
CMN is the primary partner.  All work would be carried out in Shawano and
Menominee County.  The primary school targets are Menominee Indian School
District and Menominee Tribal School.  At some point other local schools may
be asked to join especially if UW/CMN want higher participation levels.
Please note that CMN would be your employer and you'd have an office at CMN
for this 5 year grant.  The job description from CMN is here if you are
interested in applying (I would apply this week if interested):

In closing, if you are not interested, please share it with someone who is.
In these economic times this e-mail might come to someone as an especially
welcomed opportunity to start a new phase in their career.  Thanks and have
a good night!
