Illinois Tech students, faculty, and staff are invited to serve as judges and are welcome to attend as guests at the Global Leaders Program’s Inaugural Community Innovation Projects Presentation Day on Sunday, May 1 from 1:30-3:30 p.m. in Hermann Hall (3241 South Federal Street).
Teams of junior year high school scholars spend a year applying their creativity to a complex social issue of their choosing in the context of their community. Guided by adult professional and undergraduate project mentors, Community Innovation (CI) Project teams conduct in-depth research on their issue and collaborate to design and implement a solution that meets the needs of stakeholders. You can learn more about this year’s projects here.
At our CI Project Presentation Day, nine Community Innovation Project teams will showcase their accomplishments. Volunteer judges speak with teams and assess their project’s design and potential impact. To serve as a volunteer judge, fill out our registration form here.
Contact Charlie Lindquist, program coordinator, at clindqui@iit.edu with any questions about serving as a judge.
