The California Alliance for Minority Participation in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM), is a statewide initiative. The alliance is named after the honorable Louis Stokes, the first African American member of Congress from the State of Ohio. The objective of the program is to increase the number of STEM degree recipients at the University of California (UC). A timeline of Louis Stokes’ contributions is outlined below.
