[Bnc-faculty-all-list] Birck outreach this fall: Manufacturing Week -- please respond by Aug 27

[Neil R Dilley]

Dear research colleagues,
We are getting ready for this year's outreach event from Birck, which again will take place during Manufacturing Week at the Tippecanoe Fairgrounds like in previous 2 years.
https://www.greaterlafayettecommerce.com/manufacturing-week/<https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.greaterlafayettecommerce.com%2Fmanufacturing-week%2F&data=05%7C02%7Cbnc-faculty-all-list%40ecn.purdue.edu%7C19a1270cdc044e2a648c08dde0e24db6%7C4130bd397c53419cb1e58758d6d63f21%7C1%7C0%7C638913984743208448%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJFbXB0eU1hcGkiOnRydWUsIlYiOiIwLjAuMDAwMCIsIlAiOiJXaW4zMiIsIkFOIjoiTWFpbCIsIldUIjoyfQ%3D%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=KDhMvxAO9uKkISG9SRiisc%2B86z4gLQxRh7bLIEZnsWU%3D&reserved=0>
We have decided to commit to 2 days of activities at Manufacturing Week, and we will be doing the middle school (Expo) portion but not the K-5 (Discovery) ages.
Our days will be Tues Sept. 30 / Wed Oct 1.
I'm reaching out to the Birck research community to see if your lab can create and carry out a "nano" activity, hopefully relating to your research, for middle school kids (grades 6-8) at Manufacturing Week.
Please let me know soon if you can participate in this 2 day event!
Some dates:
BY Wed., Aug. 27           - please let me know verbally if your group can participate, and what your activity will be
Friday, Sept. 5                 - groups each demonstrate their projects in BRK 1001
Monday, Sept. 8             - Neil and Kelli finalize the list of groups participating
Tues 9/30, Wed 10/1   - Birck activities at Manufacturing Week

Thank you for helping Birck outreach!
Best
Neil
