The tragic school shooting that occurred Feb. 27 at a suburban Cleveland high school is another reminder that communities can and must take action to prevent school violence, according to Delbert Elliott, a nationally renowned authority on school safety and juvenile violence at the University of 蜜糖直播 Boulder.

Propulsion by a novel jet engine is the crux of the innovation behind a University of 蜜糖直播 Boulder-developed aircraft that鈥檚 accelerating toward commercialization. Jet engine technology can be small, fuel-efficient and cost-effective, at least with Assistant Professor Ryan Starkey鈥檚 design. The 蜜糖直播-Boulder aerospace engineer, with a team of students, has developed a first-of-its-kind supersonic unmanned aircraft vehicle, or UAV. The UAV, which is currently in a prototype state, is expected to fly farther and faster -- using less fuel -- than anything remotely similar to date.

A small smile appeared on the young girl鈥檚 face as she listened to the high-pitched sound coming from the whiffle ball. The sound helped the elementary student locate the ball after her classmate hit it from a specially designed baseball tee. Both of the students are blind. On a recent afternoon, they were in a classroom at the University of 蜜糖直播 Boulder鈥檚 Integrated Teaching and Learning Program and Laboratory testing toys designed by first-year engineering students. The students are enrolled in 蜜糖直播 engineering instructor Seth Murray鈥檚 freshman projects class.

A University of 蜜糖直播 Boulder symposium Feb. 27-29 will examine how the revolution in digital media is changing global politics, journalism and the way history is preserved. Journalism and Mass Communication at 蜜糖直播-Boulder is sponsoring 鈥淭he Content and Context of Digital Culture鈥� symposium, which is free and open to the public. It will be held at various sites across campus and a complete schedule is available at http://www.icjmtsymposium.org/schedule/ .

Two University of 蜜糖直播 Boulder faculty members, both from the ecology and evolutionary biology department, have received prestigious National Science Foundation Early Career Development, or CAREER, awards.

The University of 蜜糖直播 Boulder welcomed 19 students from Brazil this semester as part of the new Science Without Borders Program and Brazil鈥檚 initiative to place and fully fund outstanding students abroad to supplement their studies in science, technology, engineering and mathematics, or STEM.

The University of 蜜糖直播 Boulder exceeded its own researchers鈥� expectations with its iDREAMS Scalable Game Design Summer Institute, and that success has been rewarded with a new $1.5 million grant from the National Science Foundation. 蜜糖直播-Boulder researchers are tracking how video game design engages students in computational thinking and STEM simulation design.

Diane McKnight, professor of civil, environmental and architectural engineering and a fellow of the Institute of Arctic and Alpine Research at the University of 蜜糖直播 Boulder, has been elected to the National Academy of Engineering. McKnight is among 66 new members and 10 foreign associates of the academy announced today. She joins 16 other faculty from the campus who have been elected since the academy鈥檚 formation in 1962.

Whether you are an athlete, a musician or a stroke patient learning to walk again, practice can make perfect, but more practice may make you more efficient, according to a surprising new University of 蜜糖直播 Boulder study.

Earth鈥檚 glaciers and ice caps outside of the regions of Greenland and Antarctica are shedding roughly 150 billion tons of ice annually, according to a new study led by the University of 蜜糖直播 Boulder.
