Changes

<span style="font-size:small"><span id="docs-internal-guid-f3bdb54e-b9ac-72c9-fad0-550b90fdae96"><span style="font-family: Arial; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap">Within the general Baltimore area there are maker space’s such as ''The Foundry'', located downtown, and various metallurgy and casting mills, located in the Mount Washington area, open for public use. However, Loyola and these businesses/spaces have not yet formed any professional connections. Such a relationship would be extremely beneficial for students on the campus looking for design space and materials.&nbsp;More connections with mentors and networking in the area, especially with companies that encourage innovation, start-ups, and entrepreneurship, need to be made as well. We recently introduced a Maker's Space in our library, where students are able to access a variety of creative materials, including but not limited to sewing machines and a messy cart. We also hired a director of the University's new Center for Innovation and Entrepreneurship. The appointment of this faculty member will help give students the tools to be agents of change. Another tool that has been utilized is the Handshake app. This app helps students make connections with outside industries and helps them find jobs. Another resource is the career center. This organization helps students work on their resumes and find jobs, therefore facilitating university-industry collaboration.</span></span></span>
