<span style="background-color: transparent; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; white-space: pre-wrap;">#uifresh is a community of University Innovation Fellows, students, faculty and administrators who are engaging first-year university students in innovation, entrepreneurship, creativity, design thinking and more. These activities can take the form of short workshops, innovation weeks, mentor programs, tours of innovation spaces, scavenger hunts and more.</span>
<span><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-color: transparent; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Members of the #uifresh community share best practices of how to engage first years, lessons learned from hosting events, and ideas for activities tested at our schools. The earlier students take advantage of resources around innovation and entrepreneurship on campus, the more likely they are to continue to engage with those resources during their time at the university.</span></span>
