  • SWITCH movie screening

    SWITCH movie screening

    Thu, May 02, 2013 @ 06:30 PM - 08:30 PM

    Viterbi School of Engineering Student Organizations

    Student Activity


    May 2nd, 2013
    Taper Hall of Humanities (THH 101), 6:30PM
    RSVP: www.bit.ly/switchrsvp

    The USC Energy Club, Marshall Net Impact, and Political Students Assembly are proud to bring you, Switch, a documentary looking into our energy future with a Q&A session afterwards with Dr. Scott W. Tinker.

    In 2009, documentary filmmaker Harry Lynch and geologist Dr. Scott W. Tinker set out to make a film on our energy transition. The goal was not to advocate for one technology over another, not to suggest how the transition should happen — but to try to determine how it actually would happen, based on scientifically-sound investigation and the practical realities of the world of energy as we discovered them. The result is Switch.

    Please join us for a memorable night!

    Location: Mark Taper Hall Of Humanities (THH) - 101

    •Most of the 48 teams are first-year Botball teams.
    •28 of the 48 teams are fully funded by a collaborative NSF ITEST research grant (between USC and SIUE) investigating techniques to maximize mentor effectiveness in increasing STEM self-efficacy in students.
