The Bayport-Blue Point High School Advanced Placement Seminar students used the Stony Brook University databases for their research papers.

The students are now prepared for the first component of the AP Seminar College Board Exam, the research paper and group presentation. The students first choose a vital topic significant to themselves and society and will later argue for a solution to the team’s research topic. The SBU databases enhance the students’ available resources.
