Emmett Till Math & Science Academy, 6543 South Champlain Avenue
SSA students and faculty are also involved with smaller scale projects throughout the South Side. When Associate Professor Waldo E. Johnson, Jr. was "principal for a day" at Till Academy last fall, for example, he discovered that their library needed help affixing bar codes on their books. He contacted the University's Community Service Center and found several University students willing to help.
