Assistance for High School Robotics Team
My name is Katie and I support after school programs at Cleveland High School, which is a STEM school. We have a well-established Robotics team at Cleveland, but we need some support with it. I'm reaching out with the hope that there's a student at UW who knows about Robotics and who would be willing to assist with this after school program.
The commitment would be 1 or 2 days a week (the days haven't been decided yet) from 2:20 - 4:00ish. There is an opportunity for this student to be paid as well. There is a lead teacher who oversees the program, and this student would be supporting the teacher and the club.
Student should contact me if they are interested--reaching me at this email is best.

holding an information meeting to inform students about upcoming
research opportunities in the area of Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS).
For more information, please see that attached flyer.
What: UAS Student Research Opportunity Meeting
Who: Any UW student (both undergraduate and graduate)
When: Sept. 25, 2014, 1:30 – 2:30pm

-Students design, fabricate, and demonstrate flight capabilities of an unmanned, radio controlled aircraft.
-Students compete in an international fly-off in the spring.
2. UW Unmanned Aerial System (UAS)
-The AFSL is building a UAS for flight test and research purposes
