This course is designed not to provide new instruction but to provide students an opportunity to design, develop, test, implement, manage and lead an outreach "makerspace" project and workshop targeting middle- and high-school youth. While there is some opportunity for creativity on what the project is about, in many cases they may focus on open source environmental sensing technologies built on Arduino microcontrollers, 3D design and printing applications, or projects related to "smart cities" and the management of public problems and services.

College of Engineering freshman and new transfer students are brought together in small groups with an Engineering upper-level student mentor. The mentor serves as a knowledgeable resource and support system for the individual as well as the group during their first semester of college. Benefits of the mentorship program include but are not limited to: immediate connection with an experienced Engineering student, meeting other first-year students who share similar academic and/or extracurricular interests, and a friendly supportive environment to share experiences and/or concerns.

This course will explore the concepts of Good and Evil as expressed in philosophical and theological texts and in their imaginative representation in literature, film and television, photography, and other forms of popular media. Cross-cultural perspectives and approaches to moral problems such as the suffering of the innocent, the existence of evil, the development of a moral consciousness and social responsibility, and the role of faith and spirituality will be considered.
