HOUGHTON, MICHIGAN – The week of March 10 is spring break at Michigan Technological University, and many Michigan Tech students are participating in alternative spring breaks, a far cry from the stereotypical trip to party beaches in the south.
The School of Business and Economics is sending students to the hotbed of technological innovation, Silicon Valley in California. Two groups on campus are sponsoring activities in Chicago, and students from the National Society of Black Engineers are going into Detroit schools to raise awareness of and interest in careers in science, technology, engineering and math. Michigan Tech’s Outdoor Adventure Program is taking groups of students to Puerto Rico, the Great Smoky Mountains and the Buffalo River.
