<p class="MsoNormal">Princeton is launching the<span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#222222;background:white"> </span><a href="https://eeb.princeton.edu/graduate/eeb-scholars-program" target="_blank"><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#1155CC;background:white">EEB
Scholars Program</span></a>, a special preview weekend for prospective graduate students. Our hope is that this program will
<u>encourage</u><u><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#222222"> students from backgrounds typically underrepresented in STEM fields to apply to Princeton's EEB program</span></u><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#222222;background:white">.
The program aims to</span> showcase the department, demystify the graduate application process, and highlight student research for competitive graduate applicants.<o:p></o:p></p>

<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">Attached is a flyer with more information about the program. This program is open to
<u>all prospective graduate students, including undergraduate juniors and seniors</u>, and we especially encourage students from underrepresented minority groups and those inhabiting other axes of diversity to apply. The application requires a 1-page personal
statement, a CV, an unofficial transcript, and 2 letters of recommendation, and is due July 15, 2018.<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">Could you <u>share this information</u> with any students who might be interested and benefit from this program, as well as circulate it throughout your department? Any help in spreading the word would be much appreciated. <o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>

<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">(For those of us working to increase representation of underrepresented minorities in our fields, this program is an example of one kind of effort toward that end.)<o:p></o:p></p>
