Regional meetups are interactive events created by and for Fellows. The events are hosted by Fellows at their schools, and Fellows from all cohorts are invited to attend. Meetups showcase the activities that Fellows have been implementing at their schools to engage peers and create lasting change. They provide opportunities to further engage students, faculty and community members; they can help the host Fellows discover new resources and connections in their region; and they forge deeper relationships with visiting Fellows.<br><br>
By leveraging unique strengths of a campus and the energy of the community, host Fellows can spark a regional movement with a bias towards action around innovation, entrepreneurship, creativity and design thinking. Fellows have hosted seven regional meetups in the last two years, ranging from the east coast to the midwest.<br><br>
Fellows who attend regional meetups will have an opportunity to gain new skills, collaborate with their peers, learn strategies from Fellows who have gained traction in the I&E ecosystem at their schools. We encourage you to join us at as many of these events as possible!<br><br>
'''Fall Regional Meetups'''<br><br>
September 13-15, 2019: Wichita State University Regional Meetup, the weekend before the ASEE Regional Conference. Email Fellow Austin Nordyke if you’re interested. More info soon!<br><br>
'''All are welcome! You do not need to have completed training in order to attend.'''<br><br>
Know friends at your school who want to be involved with your work as a Fellow? Does a sibling want to learn more about what you're doing? Does your faculty sponsor want to join in the fun? Bring them along! This is the place for everyone! All Fellows, candidates, faculty sponsors, friends and community members are welcome.<br><br>
Fellows attending the Meetup are responsible for travel to and from the event, lodging and a nominal registration fee.<br><br>
