Summer Interns Tackle Critical Campus Connection Challenge
This summer, in partnership with the Research and Innovation Office’s (RIO) Innovation and Entrepreneurship team and the College of Arts & Sciences Community Engagement initiative, the ASSETT Innovation Incubator has assembled a team of three undergraduate student interns to design and launch a campus-wide student challenge to tackle the question: How might we creatively use our resources to support meaningful connections within our campus community while physically distancing?
Over a rapid, 10-week period, the interns will design and launch the SKO Together Challenge that invites University of Colorado Boulder undergraduate students to imagine ways that they can have a connected campus community experience through a persistent pandemic, no matter how we are living, learning, and working. This virtual challenge will be live in mid-July, and students submitting top ideas will be awarded with funding and mentorship to develop their campus connection concepts throughout fall 2020.
