Meeting with the Interim President, Satish Udpa On Friday, April 12th, SGP leadership as well as Wolfgang Bauer met with Satish Udpa to discuss building the future of the biodome. They discussed cost estimates and where the money would be going, such as the solar power ideas. All in all, we walked in with a $10 million dollar project and left with a $8.5 million one since cuts were able to be made! |

Virtual Reality A team has been working hard on bringing our 3D Rendered model of the Biodome into a Virtual Reality. The rendering project is finally coming to an end, the VR step being the final step. Soon, everyone will be able to witness the beautiful adventure our rendering team has been working hard to create! |

What's Next? After all of the meetings we have planned, the meetings we've attended, and after special events, such as TedX, the Student Greenhouse Project will be working towards long term funding, engineering reviews, and University advancement! We are now tasked with developing a working relationship with the VP of Advancement, Marti Heil, engaging with Provost June Youatt, and having Amy Butler, the Campus Sustainability Director, as our liaison to the upper administration. |
