<span style="font-size:small;"><span style="color:#800000;"</span>RUSH UIF is a four part event series which seeks to expose students to Innovation & Entrepreneurship in fun and exciting ways and increase student awareness of the underlying prevalence of Innovation & Entrepreneurship in our culture today. Each event is very different from the last, targeting a different reason or avenue for I&E involvement. This year's series took place August 29th, 2016 - September 1st, 2016.</span>
#<span style="font-size:small;">DAY ONE - Movie Night: We chose to show the motion picture "Joy" to illustrate the grit and perseverance required when experiencing setbacks in a venture</span>
#<span style="font-size:small;">DAY TWO - Pop-up Mixer: This event was comprised of a three station pop-up at which students learned about a different facet of I&E including innovation, entrepreneurship, and human-centered thinking</span>
#<span style="font-size:small;">DAY THREE - Happy Hour Unconference: Students were able to meet off campus at a local hot spot for drinks, good conversation, and a chance to try out the HTC Vive and the Microsoft Hololens</span>
#<span style="font-size:small;">DAY FOUR - Makeathon: Students were tasked with creating items which would help them survive in a desert island scenario. We provided rapid prototyping supplies and a creative atmosphere, the rest was up to the students! Each participant really enjoyed the event and expressed interest in attending similar events in the future</span>
