A program through Purdue Veterinary Medicine\u2019s Office of\nEngagement is reaching children across the country through virtual means to\ncontinue inspiring future veterinarians.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dr. Sandy San Miguel, associate dean for engagement and founder of the This is How We \u201cRole\u201d program, and Wright Frazier, director of web communications, created a Facebook video series<\/a> to help deliver virtual interactive lessons to students.

This is How We \u201cRole\u201d<\/a> was created to help provide science and math experiences to kids in grades K-4 who are educationally disadvantaged due to socioeconomic status, race, or ethnicity, with the long-term goal of diversifying the veterinarian-scientist workforce. The program is supported by the Science Education Partnership Award program of the National Institute of General Medical Sciences of the National Institutes of Health.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Although\nthe program won\u2019t be able to deliver in-person lessons for the time being\nbecause of the COVID-19 pandemic, Dr. San Miguel hopes to reach students\nthrough the video series in an engaging way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI feel\nthat now, in this time of uncertainty, where routines have been disrupted, and\nkids can\u2019t go to school, it\u2019s more important than ever to give kids a vision of\nhope, and empower them with a mission to look forward to each day,\u201d Dr. San\nMiguel said. \u201cWe can all help out in our own way.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The\nonline series will continue for at least four more weeks. Answers to questions\nand challenges, where students are asked to do an activity, are posted at 9:00\na.m. (ET) every day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
