Broader Impacts Network @Mizzou
•  Gives workshops and trainings on
understanding broader impacts and
constructing broader impacts plans.
•  Serves as a central clearinghouse for
broader impacts activities at MU.
If you had not kept pushing me to do what
I really want, I wouldn’t have got this far.
Figuring out what I wanted to do was
extremely difficult for me. I would have
talked myself into something for which I’m
really not suited and of which I would
have made a hash.”

•  Documents & Publicizes broader
impacts activities and programs at MU.
