On Saturday, April 9th, UNCG will be hosting a program sponsored by the American Association of College Women called Triad Tech Savvy.  This is an all-day program designed to introduce middle school girls to STEM careers, and has a number of hands-on activities and speakers.  I am on the planning committee, and we are looking for volunteers who are interested in being involved for part or all of that Saturday to escort people around, help get people checked in, work with our presenters, etc.  If you would like to be involved, please respond to me at ksgrigg@uncg.edu and I will put you in touch with Mary Krautter, our volunteer coordinator.  I am including the URL for the event.

Mark your calendars- the next STEM Librarianship in North Carolina, abbreviated STEM-LINC (our new name!) meeting will take place on 4/29 at UNCG.  We are still working on the programming and the schedule, but I wanted to make sure people could mark off their calendars now.  We’ll follow up with more details as we have them. I would count on the schedule being similar, with a morning programming followed by optional lunch.  I will help escort people to the lunch sites of their choice. We have a food court right here in the adjoining building, but there are also some great restaurants on Tate Street, which is a short walk. Look for more information soon!
