*Intellectual Property Office Hours*
1/15 from 6-8 PM in 5-134
Are you an innovator or inventor? Does your work solve the problems of
under-served people or communities? Are you uncertain how (or why) to
protect your intellectual property? Do you need advice about
intellectual property issues for international community service
projects? Then come to the Intellectual Property Clinic. Even if you
don’t intend to benefit financially from your ideas, IP protection may
make your project more effective and sustainable. Explore your options
at this drop-in IP clinic. Our panel of IP professionals will consult
with individuals or teams. This clinic is suitable for IDEAS Competition
teams, 100k Development Track, and all other members of the MIT
community who are working on innovations that solve the problems of
underserved communities.

*Change Your World: Information on Joining the Peace Corps*
1/16 from 2-3:30PM in 2-105
If natural disasters and global strife have made you think about the
state of our world and how you too can learn to get involved and make a
difference for the well being of our planet and its inhabitants, please
come to an informational session led by Peace Corps' MIT Recruiter.
Learn why MIT grads are valuable to Peace Corps and how you can put your
degree to work to make an impact in communities around the world. With a
great past and wonderful benefits, Peace Corps is a top notch option
after graduation. Come and learn more!
