Norcross, GA, February 23, 2011 — LAN Systems, a leading Atlanta IT Service company, was delighted to help sponsor the Girl Scout Crime Scene Mystery program at SPSU. Over 60 girls and a dozen volunteers participated in the event to teach scientific and investigative skills.
The workshop and badge program taught girls from the 4th and 5th grades forensic science techniques and examination of evidence as they solved the crime scene. Five activity stations were used to teach fingerprinting, skull analysis, hair and fiber analysis and chromatography. The program concluded with a presentation on blood typing and the solution to the crime scene mystery.
Through programs like the Girl Scout Crime Scene Mystery, women engineers and scientists show girls that math and science is fun and challenging. “This was an especially enjoyable program,” said Jennifer Huff, Electrical Engineer at Georgia System Operations Corporation. “The girls were able to practice some very detailed analysis methods and have some fun.”
