Hi:  I'm hoping you can help me rapidly circulate a proposal.  

mWater is a great project to use mobile and mapping platforms to identify potable water sources in developing countries.

There is a proposal for a "capstone-like" project for the spring second-year students, and it apparently got accidentally sidelined through a bureaucratic slip. 

Please circulate it to anyone who might be interested, starting with MPAs but on to anyone else who might need a project for their semester.  

I'm happy to address queries about the project, and feel free to include my email address.  (It looks like I'll be the faculty of record, though mWater founders John and Annie Feighery will be heavily involved.)

Queries about registration questions (and how it fits into degree requirements, etc) should probably go to Glenn Denning and Dan McIntyre.

People will need to sign up by Friday, so time is of the essence...

Thanks!

Anne

Awesome!

So, as incoming communications director, I know this is a bit early as the handover of group resources etc isn't until January (right?), but what channels do we already have to distribute this as a group?

I'll post to fbook and the second years' google group in the meantime.

Great, thanks Joel. I'll explain all the channels in the Spring!

Cool. In the meantime, I'm not a member so I can't post to the 2nd years' fbook group, but someone else can: https://www.facebook.com/groups/389461127765854/

Google group has the post and the proposal.
