Senate Initiative Proposes More STEM Education for Students

Google News reports on an initiative presented by Sen. Jeanne Shaheen of New Hampshire on Monday which proposes to expose students to more STEM education in order to ready them for "better-paying jobs of the present and future."  It is also presumed to narrow the gap with Asian nations which are considered more advanced in robotics.  Sen. Shaheen also participated in a demonstration of FIRST Robotics during the Senate hearing.  http://www.google.com/hostednews/afp/article/ALeqM5h9J-tsSaVazS3j8NArpgzjQNL0Bg?docId=CNG.bcf74a4d0a9bb29afe4e98cfe57a8c2d.1341
