Florida State University president tests positive for COVID-19

FSU president John Thrasher, assists FSU physics professor Dr. Paul Cottle with a demonstration of magnetic induction to students at the Orlando Science School during his yearly visit to encourage them to continue their STEM education, on Thursday, March 12, 2015. Jobs in STEM fields (science, technology, engineering and math) are plentiful and well-paying — yet in Florida those are fields many students don’t pursue long enough to earn a degree. With the help of an FSU physics professor, we’ve analyzed which school districts — and local high schools – do the best job getting kids to take math and science courses that put them in the STEM pipeline.
