Here is the first activity the Student Government did after being elected into the 2006-2007 school year. We did a carwash for the community of Bethel, AK. It was a busy Saturday afternoon, back to back carwashes. We worked from 10pm-4pm.

The NSF TCUP KuC Summer Bridging Program runs for 7 weeks each summer and is based on the highly successful ANSEP Alaska Native Science and Engineering Program model. A typical weekday for a Bridging student begins with an 8 am Calculus prep class at the KuC Campus. The class runs until 10am and the students then report for their intern jobs.

Each job teams a student with an engineer or scientist at a local Bethel organization. We ask the companies to give the students jobs that they think the students can’t do. The sponsoring company challenges the students with projects that will take nine weeks to complete. Lunch is at noon and they are back at work at 1pm.
At 5pm the students travel back to the University residence hall where they eat and then work collaboratively on Calculus prep with peer mentors from the Pacific Alliance University Retention Program until bedtime. Weekends are dedicated to cohort building and students enjoy a joint outing; fishing, plane ride, hovercraft excursion, etc. The pace of the summer is tough, but students enjoy it and rise to the challenge year after year. Students are awarded 4 college credits upon completion of the Mathematics course.
