Everyone, Please see information below if you are interested in applying to be a Georgia Tech Tour Guide. This is a great opportunity to have an impact on guests visiting campus. Jen Jennifer Whitlow GT College of Computing Program Coordinator for Enrollment jwhitlow(a)cc.gatech.edu 404-385-2441 -----Original Message----- From: leslie.jackson(a)admission.gatech.edu [mailto:leslie.jackson@admission.gatech.edu] Sent: Monday, May 10, 2010 9:42 AM To: Jonathan R Duke; Bethany A Naser; nicole leonard; Randolph W McDow; McDow, Lauren A; Clinton R Hodges Cc: john.tone(a)iac.gatech.edu; laurence.jacobs(a)coe.gatech.edu; Sabir Khan; Stallworth, Cedric; Jennifer Whitlow; kent.barefield(a)chemistry.gatech.edu; chuck.parsons(a)mgt.gatech.edu Subject: Tour Guides Needed Hi all- As the Summer semester is nearing, the Office of Admissions finds itself once again in desperate need of your help in recruiting tour guides to give daily tours. Tech tours are available Monday-Friday at 11am and 2pm, and tours are approximately 1.5 hours long. Because some tours run over 1.5 hours, tour guides are expected to block out two hours for tours each week in their schedules. Each tour guide is expected to give one tour per week during school sessions (except holidays). In order to give tours, a guide must have at least two times in the week when a two-hour tour can be given beginning at 11am or 2pm. Students interested in becoming a tour guide and any questions regarding campus tours should be directed to the Special Recruitment Programs Office at 404-894-9499 or via email to leslie.jackson(a)admission.gatech.edu Thanks for your assistance in helping us host our visitors this summer!

[UWAB] Opportunity for Sustainable Research
by Victoria Au 30 Apr '10

30 Apr '10

Hi girls, Exciting opportunities! If you're interested in the below, please contact Marcia Kinstler at marcia.kinstler(a)business.gatech.edu -------------------------------------- The deadline for students to apply for a PURA or UROP for Fall 2010 is fast approaching, May 17. * President`s Undergraduate Research Awards (PURA) program competitively funds individual requests by a student/faculty teams for funds to be used to support undergraduate student involvement in faculty research. The awards will be used for student salaries. PURA distributes approximately 200 competitive awards per year in Fall, Spring, and Summer semesters. * *Salary Awards:* Up to $1,500 salary awards to student/faculty teams for student`s hourly wages (approx. 150 hours). http://www.undergradresearch.gatech.edu/funding.php I have faculty status and can be a sponsor for individual student requests for funds to be used to support undergraduate student involvement in faculty research PURA Awards must be research projects. In addition to these PURA Awards, I can take on some volunteers for a letter of reference. These can be service type projects Type 1 ideas: Researching sustainability and technology I am working on putting together a list of project ideas but am very open to what students themselves would suggest. I would like to see ideas related to sustainability projects where students work with me, doing research. I would also like to see some social network and gaming applications research tying computer technology to sustainability as projects for students working with me. I am open to several students. These have to be research projects so they need to be phrased that way in the applications. I will work with students on the applications. Type 2 ideas: Researching technologies to encourage reading skills in pre-schoolers I define sustainability broadly, so reaching out to teach year people to read is part of my definition of sustainability. If you can't read, you can't do well in life -- from taking medicine, to life skills, to careers. I am also looking for students who could do research on websites and mobile phone applications to engage pre-schoolers to learn to read and embrace technology. Type 3 ideas: Volunteer projects for Letter of Reference On a completely different approaoch, I know some students want to be able to list an accomplishment or project management experience on their resumes more than they want a salary or research experience. I am looking for students to lead projects related to sustainability. The type of project can be very flexible -- from organizing responses to grant applications, to implementing a fall sustainability event for campus, to exploring renewable energy opportunities, to creating a game with a sustainability theme, to doing social networking about sustainability for me for a semester -- propose your ideas!
