Salisbury, MD – It's called the ACE Mentor Program. Started in New York City, the program has come to the Eastern Shore, where high school students in Salisbury, Easton and St. Michaels have been lining up to learn about architecture, construction and engineering. Famed structural engineer Charles Thornton founded the program and talks with Delmarva Public Radio's Don Rush about its approach to learning as well as the problems facing students in America.
