As summer unfolds, the Nevada National Security Sites (NNSS) is hosting an exciting opportunity for over 70 students through its 2025 Student Program. This initiative, which has welcomed participants from various universities across the nation, aims to provide a robust learning platform through a well-structured two-day orientation, setting the stage for a productive summer.
