One UIF member was part of the winning team in the Hackathon. We are hoping to build upon this success this year.</span></span></span></span></span>

<span style="font-family:times new roman,times,serif"><span><span style="color:#000000;"><span style="font-family:times new roman,times,serif;"><span style="font-size:medium;">NDSU had recently begun to bring regional professionals and entrepreneurs onto campus on a monthly basis called, Career Conversations, and its attendance has been abysmal. The value in a system like this could be incredible for opening minds, exposing new trends in the business environment to students and also simply networking, yet very few students attend. The system is flawed but the idea is there. One new method would be to change venues base on the department or realm that the speaker is based around, and also changing the mentality. A one hour lecture over a student's lunch is not an ideal manner, for either the student or the professional, yet having it at the tail end of a small intense course would gain results.</span></span></span></span></span>
<span style="font-family:times new roman,times,serif"><span><span style="color:#000000;"><span style="font-family:times new roman,times,serif;"><span style="font-size:medium;">This process can open up doors for students and those in the business sector, by simply getting the conversation going, the fundamental element to connection. Bringing in speakers people know and or care about/ discussing topics people are intrigued about can further bridge the gap between the campus and community. </span></span></span></span></span>
