  <title><![CDATA[SENIC-IEN Launches Nano-Ambassadors]]></title>
  <body><![CDATA[<p>As part of the newly funded National Nanotechnology Coordinated Infrastructure (NNCI), IEN’s Southeastern Nanotechnology Infrastructure Corridor (SENIC) site proposed to develop a Nano-Ambassadors program of outreach volunteers. We will develop and implement a training program for undergraduates, graduate students, and others to assist in SENIC’s outreach efforts.&nbsp; Besides training grad students and post docs affiliated with SENIC, we will seek volunteers from student organizations on campus. These Nano-Ambassadors will be trained in effective STEM communication (NISE Net Communication materials) to use education activities developed by NNIN and other national groups. The first training will occur on November 3.&nbsp; If interested in attending later training sessions please contact <a href="mailto:nancy.healy@ien.gatech.edu">nancy.healy@ien.gatech.edu</a> or <a href="mailto:joyce.allen@ien.gatech.edu">joyce.allen@ien.gatech.edu</a></p>]]></body>

  <!--  TO DO: correct to not conflate categories and news room topics  -->
  <!--  Disquisition: it's funny how I write these TODOs and then never
         revisit them. It's as though the act of writing the thing down frees me
         from the responsibility to actually solve the problem. But what can I
         say? There are more problems than there's time to solve.  -->
