ReIMAGINE Incubator Showcase

Please join us for our virtual ReIMAGINE Incubator Showcase taking place over Zoom.

The showcase will feature short video presentations with Q&A from the Incubator Group of the ReIMAGINE Higher Education Grant, co-facilitated by Anne Fernald and Roxana Callejo Garcia.

This group has been meeting weekly all spring to work on proposals for ways that Fordham can address a daunting problem facing higher education today.

Project topics include:

• College Launch Summer Camp—a summer camp on campus for local K-12 students—and on-site admissions day.
• Initiative for Ignatian Climate Leadership, a climate-change themed cohort within the core.
• Project FRESH air, which stands for Fordham Regional Environmental Sensor for Health, a citizen-science project for Fordham students to work in collaboration with K-12 students.
• The “New Liberal Arts,” a one-credit course for sophomores on leadership, advocacy, and the purpose of college.
• Fordham Ignite, a credit-bearing course for first-year students aimed at building advocacy and community.

These projects are each the seed of potential grant proposals, and ReIMAGINE Incubator participants are excited to have your feedback, as they have worked very hard throughout the semester. The ReIMAGINE Incubator consists of 23 participants, including undergraduate and graduate students, Fordham staff and faculty of all ranks, as well as community members.

We’ll also hear from the ReIMAGINE Reading Group, aka Fordham’s Think Tank on the Future of Higher Education. For a chance to imagine Fordham’s future, we hope you’ll join us.
