A formal public signing of Education Partnership Agreement between Southern Illinois University Edwardsville and the U.S. Transportation Command will take place July 7 at 3:00 p.m. in the Morris University Center, Madison Room, SIUE Campus. 


Jerry Weinberg, Acting Dean, Graduate School, Vaughn Vandegrift, Chancellor, Southern Illinois University Edwardsville and Gen. Duncan J. McNabb, commander, USTRANSCOM,  Scott Air Force Base, Ill. will participate in the event.


USTRANSCOM and SIUE are partnering to expand and enhance SIUE’s Center for Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics education efforts, known as STEM, and bring expertise through USTRANSCOM scientists and engineers to the Southwest Illinois region.


The center is a collaborative enterprise among several SIUE academic units, local community colleges, school districts, regional offices of education and the community at large. Its mission is developing, strengthening and promoting STEM initiatives, the center works to enhance teaching and learning,


Cindy Doil, Scott Air Force Base School Liaison Officer is excited about the collaboration.


“I see the EPA as a mechanism that allows USTRANSCOM to help SIUE in its regional Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math efforts,” Doil said.  “Through the EPA, USTRANSCOM can help SIUE purchase items, for example, for their equipment lending library which is utilized by school districts in their local area.”


Through the operation of the STEM Center on the SIUE campus, the region’s schools and educators already have access to a rich educational resource. The partnership will allow both organizations to further STEM initiatives.


Media interested in covering the event, please contact SIUE Marketing & Communications, (618) 650-3653 or USTRANSCOM Public Affairs at (618) 220-4999.  A media availability will follow the ceremony.
