? ________________________________ Judges Needed for the Texas Science and Engineering Fair, March 28, in San Antonio The best STEM students from across the state will be at the Henry B. Gonzalez Convention Center in downtown San Antonio from March 26 through 29 to present the results of their research in one of 17 science categories at the Texas Science and Engineering Fair (TSEF). These aspiring scientists, mathematicians and engineers have qualified to participate in the TSEF by winning 1st through 3rd place in their science category in one of 15 regional science fairs in the state. Eight projects from the senior division (high school students) will be selected to represent Texas at the Intel International Science and Engineering Fair (Intel ISEF) this coming May. Because judging is competitive, we need subject matter experts to evaluate the projects. Please consider assisting us in promoting STEM education by volunteering to judge on Saturday, March 28. Judging will begin with breakfast and an orientation at 8:30 am and finish at approximately 3:00 p.m.; we will offer a catered lunch break and free parking..
