The following page outlines the UIF Candidate Priorities regarding what we believe needs to be brought to our campus in order to improve the I&E culture at our University.</span>

This group of students, called Innovation Connectors (IC’s), come into a university class (any area of study) and spend an hour going through curriculum which includes the following: </span></span>

One hour filled with energy and creativity and encouraging students to shift their mindset- think outside the box, step outside the box, live outside the box! </span></span>

Most people I’ve talked to are primarily interested in just gaining the information and moving on from there. Also, engineers are busy. Because of this, an informational session seems more of something students would appreciate more in engineering. Also from talking with the Nashville Inventors leaders, they are not super interested in driving a long way in order to hold their monthly meetings. However, I will talk to them more next week if more students are interested. </span>
