The Science Undergraduate Laboratory Internship (SULI) program encourages undergraduate students to pursue science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) careers by providing research experiences at the Department of Energy (DOE) laboratories. Selected students participate as interns appointed at one of 15 participating DOE laboratories. They perform research, under the guidance of laboratory staff scientists or engineers, on projects supporting the DOE mission.

The SULI program is sponsored and managed by the DOE Office of Science’s, Office of Workforce Development for Teachers and Scientists (WDTS) in collaboration with the DOE laboratories.

Applications for the SULI program are solicited annually for three separate internship terms. Internship appointments are 10 weeks in duration for the Summer Term (May through August) or 16 weeks in duration for the Fall (August through December) and Spring (January through May) Terms. Each DOE laboratory offers different research opportunities; not all DOE laboratories offer internships during the Fall and Spring Terms.

In this CBS interview with radio host Tom Joyner, President Barack Obama, who is known for his eloquency and superior oratory skills, announces in advance that his speech at the 50th anniversary of the March on Washington "...won't be as good as the speech 50 years ago."  He is of course referring to Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s I Have a Dream speech, which is as moving and relevant today as it was when it was delivered fifty years ago.  

President Obama makes some insightful remarks on how far we've come, but how 50 years later, the March continues.

"Obviously, we've made enormous strides. I'm a testament to it," he said last week at Binghamton University in New York. A member of the faculty asked for his thoughts on the civil rights movement, 50 years after "I Have a Dream."

In the president's view, every generation "seems wiser in terms of wanting to treat people fairly and do the right thing and not discriminate."

But every time Mr. Obama mentions the progress inspired by and achieved because of King, he is quick to caution that there is much about The Dream that is yet to be fulfilled.

He said a "legacy of discrimination" still exists. He spoke of "institutional barriers" against minority groups, specifying African-Americans, Latinos and Native Americans.

He also makes the point that the 1963 March was about jobs and justice, and in those sectors, inequality still needs to be addressed.

"When it comes to the economy, when it comes to inequality, when it comes to wealth, when it comes to the challenges that inner cities experience," Mr. Obama said King would say "we have not made as much progress as the civil and social progress that we've made.

He thinks King would feel "it's not enough just to have a black president; it's not enough just to have a black syndicated radio show host."

On the question of whether ordinary Americans can succeed day-to-day, "we have not made as much progress as we need to on that," he says.

FORCE: Upsetting Rape Culture is an art activist effort to upset the dominant culture of rape and promote a counter-culture of consent.

Through public art actions, FORCE generates media attention to get people talking about important issues. The group is most widely known for their viral panty prank, otherwise known as Pink Loves Consent, where they pretended to be Victoria’s Secret promoting consent themed slogans on undies and thongs. Force has called attention to issues surrounding rape culture by projecting “RAPE IS RAPE” onto the US Capitol Building and for floating a poem written by a rape survivor in the reflecting pool on the national mall.
