Participants will have the opportunity to: · Gain professional experience explaining scientific concepts to people from non-technical backgrounds. · Support the future of STEM programs by introducing grade schoolers and high school students to the miniscule world of atoms, molecules, and nanoscale forces. · Participate with other students/researchers in a nationwide festival celebrating nanotechnology science and education. Since 2010, the Birck Nanotechnology Center at Discovery Park has participated in NISE NanoDays, a program that promotes science and technology education nationwide. Volunteers will staff activity stations and assist visitors as they investigate different scientific concepts. Some example activities for 2017 include static electricity, DNA, and ultraviolet light. No prior knowledge is required to volunteer, just an enthusiasm for science and science education. Volunteers can attend any or all of the available shifts (04/03/19 - 04/05/19). Free NanoDays T-shirt and food will be provided to Volunteers. Training is mandatory and will be provided in the Birck atrium on Tuesday, 04/02/19. A pizza party will be held from 5:00 PM to 5:30 PM, training will follow from 5:30 PM to 6:00 PM, and unstructured familiarization with the activities can be done from 6:00 PM to 7:00 PM. If the training schedule does not work for you, or if you have any questions, you may contact volunteer coordinator Rich Hosler (hosler0@purdue.edu<mailto:hosler0@purdue.edu>) and Justin Wirth (jcwirth@purdue.edu<mailto:jcwirth@purdue.edu>) Sign Up Here<https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSedFkdKYdqxFP2YGKbkeWTY06lVI6Yh9uGUd87pXPDEmssgYg/viewform?vc=0&c=0&w=1&usp=mail_form_link> Thanks you! 2019 Nanodays Committee Parking Changes Please share with building occupants: The next phase of the Discovery Park District development will close the parking lot west of Birck Nanotechnology Center along with the parking spaces on Marshall Drive, on or after March 18, 2019. A few spaces directly west of Birck along the sidewalk will remain open until May. These may be accessed from Gates Rd. off of Nimitz Drive. Please be alert to signage changes that will occur to parking spaces on streets and lots. Adjustments have been made to accommodate for the loss of Purdue permit spaces. Additional A permit spaces have been added to Arnold Drive, directly east of the Purdue Village Administration Building along with additional A and AB permit spaces added to the Discovery Park Lot. Please see attached map for these locations. Questions may be directed to Parking Facilities at (765) 494-9497 or parking@purdue.edu<mailto:parking@purdue.edu>
