Math, Sciences, Engineering Academy students are checking water flow with John Brahana, professor of geosciences, during 2011 at the Savoy Research Station.

As part of a cooperative program with Fort Valley State University, the University of Arkansas hosts students from the Math, Sciences, and Engineering Academy (M-SEA) each summer. The students are high achieving rising juniors from around the United States who spend a week with engineering, geosciences and mathematics faculty participating in fun and educational programs.

To culminate the week's activities the students put on a presentation to demonstrate what they have learned in the three major areas of study though humorous skits, song and dance. These students are truly talented in the performing arts besides their academic achievements.

Members of the program hope that the campus community and public will come to see this engaging presentation in the Arkansas Union Theatre at 10 a.m. on Saturday, June 23. This event is free and open to the public!
