Inner city campers proved that science is fun. At the Exxon-Mobil Bernard Harris Summer Science Camp, hosted by Temple, 50 Delaware Valley middle school students competed to see whose raft could hold the most pennies. Each raft was constructed with plastic straws and aluminum foil, and the design was all up to the students. Harris, a former astronaut and the first African American to walk in space, was on hand to witness and encourage the students' efforts.
