"Your undergraduate students are literally being trained like graduate students -- which is a remarkable thing.... ” -Dr. Erin Lynch, WeHBSeeU TV
A crew from WeHBSeeU TV, a national digital streaming network that spotlights Historically Black Colleges and Universities, visited Central State University in September 2024 and spent a full day to see for itself the scope and nature of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) research CSU faculty and students are undertaking at Ohio's only public HBCU. CSU was the 44th HBCU the crew has visited so far. "This has been an awe-inspiring experience -- to be able to capture this in southwest Ohio," said Dr. Erin Lynch, host of WeHBSeeU TV and president of its affiliated nonprofit QEM (Quality Education for Minorities) Network in Washington, D.C.
After visiting four Central State laboratories and meeting with teachers and students who worked on semiconductors with Intel funding last summer, Lynch was impressed. "Your undergraduate students are literally being trained like graduate students. Which is a remarkable thing that you have 19 and 20-year-olds sounding like 25 and 27-year-olds, talking about the science (projects) that they are doing," she said in an interview recorded at the end of the day for Research Connection podcast.
