Education, Religion, and Science Come Together at Evolution Event

摘要

As a long-time chemistry teacher and chair of her high school Science Department, Bertha Spahr knew of AAAS's broad interest in science and policy. She hadn't realized, though, that its involvement extended to her classroom in Dover, Pennsylvania. But at a special evolution event organized by AAAS, Spahr realized that the U.S. science and technology communities are rallying to aid teachers like herself in schools nationwide who are subject to mounting pressure by antievolution groups to inject religion into public school science classrooms.
