'''About Tara (UIF): '''
Tara has helped to bridge the gap of communication between students and faculty/staff on campus. Herself and the other awesome fellows have taken many leaps at MSOE.

They plan to... 1) Collaborate with UW-Milwaukee fellows to bring TedX to the MIlwaukee Community 2) Host an MSOE Faculty Fair where students can network with faculty both in and out of their department 3) Create a "Before I die..._____" wall and 4) Create a Big Wall of Opportunity where students can share their passions to collaborate on projects outside of school.
