Science projects for the 1997 Iowa State Science and Technology Fair are due March 7. The fair, which will be held at Iowa State University, March 21 and 22, is the only statewide general science fair for middle and high school students in Iowa.

Participants in the state science fair must submit project entry forms, for individual or team projects, to the fair’s director.

All projects must adhere to regulations set by the fair’s committee, and proposals must be developed under the guidance of a teacher or other professional, said Sande McNabb, university professor of plant pathology and forestry at ISU and chair of the fair Board of Directors.
