(Elementary, Middle School, & High School): Mu Xi Lambda Chapter hosted our 33rd Annual Oratorical Contest. This educational event is an opportunity to highlight our talented youth throughout the Inland Empire (grades 1 through 12). Our scholars demonstrated their advocacy and shared their voices around current topics impacting our communities. This event would also showcase their skills in public speaking, critical thinking, and problem-solving.

This experience exposes nearly 300 Young Scholars, ages 14 to 18 to STEM-based majors and careers. Students engage in hands-on workshops and seminars related to computer programming, cyber defense, aerospace science, and engineering. Students receive information and advice on the college admissions process, financial aid, and the process of selecting classes, majors, and course curriculum. Guest speakers fill the day which includes a panel discussion with current college members of Alpha Phi Alpha, who also sat with student participants during lunch sharing the testimony of their experiences.

Students are provided the opportunity to fly across the united states and then visit over 10 black colleges & universities. On their campus tour, students learn about the university/college, talk with school officials & recruiters, and are provided information about the various disciplines of study.
