[Plsugs] CONTEST - Rooftop Garden Design

[Quist, Tanya M - (tquist)]

The Office of Student Engagement is partnering with Arizona Student Unions to host the first-ever Rooftop Garden Design Competition. Students interested in participating will be asked to work in teams of five to research, design, and pitch their ideas for a sustainable garden that will be housed on the Student Union Memorial Center rooftop. Food harvested from the garden will be used at SUMC restaurants, such as Pangea, as well as available for students through the Campus Pantry.

Students will:

*         Apply their learning to solve a robust, immersive challenge

*         Practice the critical skills employers are looking for, such as collaboration/teamwork, communication, and problem solving/critical thinking

*         Gain meaningful experience to add to a resume or discuss during job/grad school interviews

*         Design a sustainable garden that will serve their fellow students

*         Have the opportunity to leave a tangible impact on the University of Arizona campus for years to come!

Kick-off for the rooftop garden design competition is:
Friday, February 3rd
6:00 pm
SUMC Gallagher Theater

Students will learn more details and have the opportunity to register teams at this time.

Please share the attached widely with students. This is a fantastic opportunity!

Cheers,
Jessica
