About 3 weeks ago – I was visiting a friend in L.A. whom lives near Culver city. On Saturday morning we woke up with an urge for a good cup of coffee. After much discussion of where to go … we opted to stay near the neighborhood. Thanks to yelp and our decision, we came across The Conservatory! This coffee shops is across Sony studios, it’s not the typical modern or hipster coffee shop but it will definitely have you asking for more. I recommend the cappuccino.

Once again the Student Research Advisory Committee will conduct the Interdisciplinary Research Learning Community (IRLC). Students from across the disciplines meet biweekly to engage in professional development activities and build intellectual links across disciplinary boundaries.
We seek to create an intentional linkage between the IRLC and our student delegation to the CSU Student Research Competition (SRC). We hope that many of the students chosen for the Learning Community will go on to represent CI at the Research Competition.
We want faculty to nominate students who are conducting research for inclusion in the Spring IRLC. You can submit your nominations here.
Frequently Asked Questions
What are the benefits of participation?
What is the timeline for selection?
How will students be selected?
Students will be nominated by faculty and selected by the Student Research Steering Council. Selection will be based on 1) a short recommendation from faculty who are involved in mentoring the student’s research, and 2) an application and abstract submitted by the student. Participants will be selected for the quality of their proposed research and the faculty nomination, with due consideration for representation of a variety of disciplines.
How many students will you select for the Learning Community?
The total number of students depends on funding considerations. However, we do not anticipate more than 20 participants.
Can I submit more than one nomination?
Yes. But please limit yourself to your most promising students.
Can I submit a group of students who are working together on a project?
Yes. But we may not be able to select all of them for inclusion in the learning community. Each individual will be submitting an application and will be chosen based on their individual qualifications and the need to maintain the interdisciplinary quality of the Learning Community.
Does the student’s research have to be interdisciplinary?
Interdisciplinarity is achieved by choosing discipline-centered students. Students and faculty SHOULD NOT alter their research to make it interdisciplinary. If the student’s research is interdisciplinary that is great, but that WILL NOT influence the decisions of the Committee.
Are students required to register for UNIV 311?
YES.
Can a student participate in the Student Research Competition if they are NOT in the Learning Community?
YES. The SRAC will continue to conduct its vetting of projects as it has in the past. Our purpose, however, is to try to identify likely SRC participants much earlier than usual.
If a student is chosen for the IRLC does that mean they automatically will be included in the CI Student Research Competition team?
NO. However, selection satisfies the first round selection process (submission of an acceptable abstract) of the on-campus SRC competition. We hope that faculty nominating their best students now will result in many of the IRLC students also being included on CI’s team.
Today finished my elements for the bubble head Pele for active planet kids. I made a total of 5 illustrations, showcasing 5 different objects that Pele has use / won in his life as a professional soccer player. The first one is the soccer world cup of course, I try to me it realistic but at the not too photography, a right combination of vector art and texture. The second one was a soccer ball, a decided to add some dirt to show that he plays a lot and practice a lot to get to the place he is. The third element was a flag of Brazil where he lives and play most of the time, I added some movement to the flag to make it a little more dynamic, I also added some texture and a wooden pole. The forth element is a sign by him t-shirt “Pele 10” is an iconic item, it was the one he use to win the world cup. The last five elements was a pair of soccer shoes that he also use and sign, I added some dirt to them as well to imply that are use too much to practice an play games with them.
Below is a sample image of the 5 elements:
