Changes

Since student awareness has been a persistent issue addressed by UIF fellows in the past, we decided to take an approach that centers less on the distribution of specific information regarding E&I resources and instead focused on the building cross-departmental student relationships. As outlined below, our primary strategy seeks to create a community of students that come from different disciplines, backgrounds, and approaches to innovation. These students would form the core of a community of practice that would not be tethered to one particular competition, club, hackathon, or class--instead, it would transcend these individual offerings and support a consistent culture of innovation.
