“Invest in yourselves…
You don’t need to have a big wallet to invest in yourself because you can get it with ‘sweat equity.’ You can earn it! The way you invest in yourself and the potential of your future is the way that you apply yourself to learn.”
– Roger Billings
Inspired by his own mentor, Bill Lear, the Roger Billings Mentoring Program was developed as a way to “give back,” supporting thousands of students with mentoring guidance through Science L!VE as well as helping cover student tuition costs. Learn More About the Roger Billings Scholarship »
