Need 1 (more class). Haven't figured out your 18W classes yet and trying to find an amazing third class? You could spend hours reading course evaluations and groupme-ing out OR you could pick one of the SIPs classes below. But I've never heard of SIPs. Social Impact Practicums (SIPs) are project-based opportunities embedded into existing courses. Your final project will address an existing community need, and you will gain REAL real-world experience that would look great on a resume. For example, past SIPs courses have done research and created media content to show the ways in which congregate meals improve seniors' lives. Read about it in the article<http://www.vnews.com/Congregate-Meals-Provide-Nutrition-Socialization-for-Seniors-10062646> written about them in the local paper! <http://www.vnews.com/Congregate-Meals-Provide-Nutrition-Socialization-for-Seniors-10062646> The 18W SIPs courses are in a range of departments, check them out below! * EDUC 56: STEM and Education (David Kraemer) * ENGS 75: Product Design (Jeremy Feludi) * ENVS 11: Humans and Nature in America (Terry Osborne) * ENVS 80: The Practice of Science Policy and Diplomacy (Melody Brown Burkins) * FILM 39: Group Documentary (Jeffrey Ruoff) * HIST 96: Debating Democracy in the 19th Century (Leslie Butler) * SOCY 65: The Social Psychology of Inequality (Kim Rogers) * SPEE 20: Public Speaking (Yana Grushina) Questions?
