Sustainability in Action: Looking for Talented and Passionate Students

jamesyang1701

During COVID, more than 800 classrooms were equipped with plexiglass shielding which has been removed and could have headed for a landfill.  Instead, the EPICS Lakota team is working to repurpose the materials in partnership with the Oglala Lakota College on Pine Ridge Reservation in South Dakota to design passive solar heaters, greenhouses and storm windows using the materials from the Purdue classrooms.

We need more creative students to help design, test and develop concepts with the tribal college that will meet the needs of the residents of the reservation.  No experience or pre-requisites are required, and all are welcome.  Experience in construction, air flow, materials, heat transfer and design are helpful but not necessary.  Designs will be developed and tested in our labs to be built at the tribal college.  

Contact hlindemo@purdue.edu with questions on how to register or stop by the EPICS office in 1200 ARMS. You will find the needed CRNs below as you would want to register for the lab and the corresponding lecture CRN. Questions about the project can be directed to Prof. Oakes at oakes@purdue.edu.
