Former astronaut Bernard Harris took another giant leap toward making today's young Americans understand the importance of education at the annual ExxonMobil-Bernard Harris Summer Science Camp hosted by Temple's College of Science and Technology. "The test scores of American students in math and science lag far behind other countries," Harris said. 'We used to be a country of innovators. Now other countries are taking over by doing a better job of educating in math and science. I want to show students how to connect the dots, that there's technology and math and science in everything."
