Please share this broadly with your undergraduates; if you can think of
anyone who might be a good fit, consider approaching them directly to
encourage them to apply. This is an option for the graduating seniors who
are not eligible for REU programs.
Thanks,

*"Science is the process that takes us from confusion to understanding in a
manner that's precise, predictive and reliable - a transformation, for
those lucky enough to experience it, that is empowering and emotional. We
must embark on a cultural shift that places science in its rightful
place...as an indispensable part of what makes life worth living." -B.
