Engineers And Scientists Abroad

Some students at the South Dakota School of Mines and Technology in Rapid City have found they can have an impact on the world before they receive their diploma.  Since the fall of 2006, members of the student organization Engineers and Scientists Abroad, or ESA, have taken the expertise and training learned in the classroom to such countries as Chile, Suriname, Haiti and Bolivia.  Carl Holloman is a sophomore who was part of an ESA team that went to Peru in March.  Tony Kulesa is a graduate student who leaft for Mongolia Monday.  Karl Gehrke visited with the students last week.
