Review for American Indian Science and Engineering Society, Albuquerque, NM, USA
AISES is focused on substantially increasing the representation of Indigenous peoples of North America and the Pacific Islands in science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) studies and careers. Beyond STEM and beyond academics is a family. A family of elders, professors, expert professionals, young students and overall, an Indigenous support system. AISES is truly a one of a kind organization that brings professional manner blended with appreciation for cultural practice and incorporates learning. Although I am a mid-career professional, I wish I knew about AISES growing up. A few of my favorite moments are watching students with their job offers at the National Conference Career Fair, watching young professionals match seasoned professionals at networking events and reading about a students future they mapped out for themselves on scholarship applications. I encourage any individual who is looking for a professional cultural centric family to join AISES. They really walk the talk.
