Dear Friends:

 

Pay attention to television news at 10:00 pm tonight and the print media overnight. The $2.5 million STEM Media Campaign kickoff was today. Filled with students, Executives, local celebrities and dignitaries at Neil Armstrong Academy, a STEM school in West Valley City, we launched the “STEM Utah…Curiosity Unleashed” brand to inspire young people to obtain the coolest jobs in Utah. You may already be seeing the videos on television.

 

Here is the STEM Action Center website with the videos running on television. Feel free to share them in your social media circles.
