Hello Everyone
I am reaching out to faculty, post docs, staff and graduate students that may want to volunteer to help with an outreach activity. Our department has been invited to help judge student's entry at the upcoming Greater Nebraska Science and Engineering Fair. This event will take place on Saturday, March 29, 2025 at the Nebraska City High School in Nebraska City from 9:00 a.m. - 4:00 p.m. Judges will be asked to review and score a variety of student projects across multiple disciplines.
Additionally, Dr. Martini has offered a scholarship to all the students that have an entry related to Food Science. We have been informed that there are a few entries listed as Food Science. So it would be essential to have someone from our department judging the fair to help assess those entries and their eligibility to the scholarship that we are offering. A short/simple rubric would be provided to help with the assessment.
If you're available to lend your time and knowledge, we would be grateful for your participation. There will be complimentary breakfast and lunch for all judges participating. Mileage reimbursement would also be provided. Please let us know by March 21, 2025 if you could help, and feel free to reach out with any questions.
