Tuesday, Feb. 23
8 a.m.
New Tech Institute, 1901 Lynch Rd.Â
Students at New Tech Institute will make their presentations tomorrow to see what projects will represent New Tech Institute in the University of Evansville’s Changemaker Challenge. Community leaders will be at NTI tomorrow to help judge the presentations. Some of the topics that will be presented include gun control, high school dropouts, homelessness and veterans with PTSD.
UE’s Changemaker Challenge is designed to motivate young people to take a leading role in identifying and solving challenges in the world around them through innovation and creativity. Students from participating high schools in Vanderburgh and Warrick counties will pitch their ideas to a panel of community leaders and compete for scholarships to UE where they can come to get the support needed to make their ideas become a reality.

The final Changemaker competition will take place March 17 in Eyecamp Hall on the campus of UE.Â
