First week Fall Semester 2014
Fall semester started with a lot of apprehension. Not much money is left to provide full stipen during this academic year. We have been working hard to raise fund. Till we get mney in hand or some promise, nothing is certain.
On Tuesday we had brief presentations (by Dave Goldschmidt, Lead mentors Jorel and Robert and me). Dave G laid out the facts (current situation of RCOS). I gave a brief hsitory of RCOS My slides may be found here
on Friday Prof. Stewrat talked about the future vision and plans for RCOS. We are all optimistic for the outlook of RCOS.
Jorel and Robert are the lead mentors for this semester. They talked about the plans for the current semester. They also invited mentors to introduce themselves to the group. Jorel and Robert suggested one minute Elevator pitch slide for all the projects (Robert provided a template).
On Friay we had 35 elevator pitch presentations https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1rbOx2KvSlUFBK_uziiRaqlW_UE8u9OQPhhEqEo0YOPQ/edit#gid=0 . They are well presented and to the point. Each project presentation is for one minute. The slides (for all the projects) may e found here https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1nSH-m29z51eoRsTJcJt9jCAgl6roOmgK6N1ztEotgy8/edit?usp=sharing
I am optimistic about the fall semester. We had around 130 students attending Tuesday and Friday meetings. Let us hope for the best.
