UMass Lowell's DesignCamp is offering some alternatives for summer boredom. DesignCamp offers science and engineering workshops to students in Grades 5-11, immersing them in hands-on experimentation and invention. The most popular activity has been the science class in which students learn to solve crimes "CSI-style"- analyzing fingerprints, blood and hair with microscopes and chemicals.
