I agree Belden. There are several spaces where this offer could be incredibly helpful:<br>- Media Production room/Print desk: Brian Duggan and Carly have already been working on plans to redo the desks & storage<br>- WRFU automation cabinet: Carly and Meme are moving forward with this, but coud get help & materials<br>
- Library & public computing: desks for public computers with secure computer storage; desks, seating, flexible storage for library & other areas to replace the handme downs we currently use<br><br>I'm copying the Community Connections group on this since it served as a funneling point for several groups of interns this spring. We might use the same model with this request. Working groups have projects they need done, outside departments, professors, etc. need a single point of contact. Anyone have objections to this or other ideas?<br>
<br>As we get more involvement with departments, it would be great to formalize the arrangement at the department level with Architecture, Media Studies, & other depts on campus whose instructors, students & classes want to have community engagement experiences with the IMC.<br>

This looks like a great opportunity to me. The Public i and the CUCPJ will be getting interns and it would be great if there were desks and chairs for these people.<div>Belden<br><div><br><div>Begin forwarded message:</div>

<div><div></div><div class="h5"><div style="margin: 0px; min-height: 14px;"><br></div> Hello,<div><br><div>My name is Stewart Hicks and I am a designer and Assistant Professor of Architecture at the University of Illinois. After visiting your space a few times, it occured to me that you might benefit from some well designed desks/shelves that could become a project for me and some students. Our school does projects like this all the time, but usually for things internal to the University. However, it might be a great opportunity for you to gain some nice furniture and other constructions, and for us to design and get experience for our students. It might even be like a design/build studio that runs over the summer. We also have access to some recycled material that could be used in interesting new ways, cutting time and cost to a minimum. </div>
<div><br></div><div>If you are interested in something like this please let me know. We can discuss the particulars and I can show you some examples of what I have in mind. </div><div><br></div><div>Thank you for your time,</div>
