学生组织
MMAD works with the The Office of 公民及社区参与 to provide Harvey Mudd students an opportunity to volunteer and participate in socially conscious activities. 我们作为学生和外部社区之间的联系, providing an exchange of ideas and experiences that are a crucial to the HMC’s mission. 在秋天或2021年, HMC students gathered to walk dogs with the Priceless Pets dog shelter across the street from campus. (也请注意, we are happy to talk about other projects that MMAD works on besides dog walking like donating to Shoes that Fit and working with Habitat for Humanity).
监狱教育计划

Phousawanh Peaungvongpakdy ' 22
组织: 纳皮尔的倡议
项目: A 纳皮尔的倡议 Project Proposal: Using Math Modeling for Social Justice
“I’ve proposed a plan to the 纳皮尔的倡议 to combine mathematical modeling and social justice. My hope is if the project is accepted that students at 向上的束缚 will learn how to use mathematical modeling to understand the housing crisis in Claremont and in their community and its potential to impact social justice issues. I also hope this project helps begin a conversation and a push for housing solutions in these communities by having students participate in local nonprofit housing crisis organizations or local politics.”
Richard Chang’24
组织: HMC Biomakerspace
项目: Biomakerspace软件工程师实习
“今年夏天 I worked on generating an adapter that will allow for variable sized labware objects to be attached onto the deck of an OT-2 Opentron machine. Labs that own an OT-2 Opentron machine may find it expensive to use since it can only operate on labware objects with the exact dimensions of its deck. 通过生成适配器, labs can save a lot of money and utilize the labware objects they already own. I also worked on creating a website for a biofoundry that the Biomakerspace is trying to start up. The biofoundry aims to produce custom plasmids for labs around the Claremont Colleges in order to facilitate their research.”
姜俊宇,24岁
组织: 露西·帕森斯实验室

项目: 监狱教育计划
The 监狱教育计划 is the largest volunteer-based prison education program in the US. 在Harvey Mudd, we fill an important niche within the organization by specializing in introductory STEM subjects. During the pandemic, we successfully shifted all courses to online delivery. 另外, over 30 Mudders volunteered to teach remotely at the Prototypes Women’s Center and Riverside Juvenile Boy’s Hall. Our ultimate goal is to expose students to modern advances in STEM and help them feel empowered to pursue their own further education.

项目: Improving Equity in Career Technical Education in the Los Angeles Unified School District
组织: 劳施诊所项目
This semester our team is working with the Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD) to address inequitable funding allocations in Career Technical Education (CTE) programs. 学生 in CTE Pathways take sequenced courses that give them access to hands-on learning and connects them with a specific industry (like engineering or digital media). We have two main goals that we aim to accomplish: (1) improve the CTE funding application based on teacher feedback, and (2) deliver an automated funding allocation model that assesses how well pathways meet CTE standards (determined by the California Department of Education) and suggests a specific funding strategy.
