  1. 📺'One of our greatest accomplishments': U of I students create 'couch car' — #WCIANews on #YouTube

    ❝A loose cow on the #UniversityOfIllinois campus isn't the only thing turning heads. So is a "couch car." Two #engineering students created it for an end-of-the-school-year #STEM fair, and they called it the coolest thing they've ever done.❞

  5. Drinking water protections:

    By Ben Szalinski and Brenden Moore, Capital News Illinois

    “Illinois Senate Bill 1723 bans #carbon #sequestration — the process of capturing and storing carbon by injecting it underground — within an area that “overlies, underlies, or passes through” a U.S. Environmental Protection Agency-designated sole-source aquifer. #EPA

    The new law applies to the footprint of the #Mahomet #Aquifer, which is the main source of drinking water for more than 500,000 people across a 15-county area in central Illinois.

    It comes as Illinois, especially downstate, is targeted for carbon sequestration projects due to the state’s favorable geology and the availability of federal tax credits.

    Studies, including those conducted by researchers at the #universityofillinois have found minimal risk to water sources from sequestration activity.

    But the legislation was a priority for central Illinois community #activists #environmental advocates and a bipartisan cadre of local lawmakers with zero risk tolerance due to the lack of a clear alternative water source if the aquifer were tainted.”

  10. In the lead up to #ALTA2024, we're highlighting excellent talks and papers from previous ALTA events.

    Here, listen to a #Keynote presentation from #ALTA2023 by Professor Heng Ji from #UniversityOfIllinois Urbana-Champaign, speaking to the #SmartBook - an #AI prophetess for disaster reporting and forecasting.

    In this insightful talk, Professor Heng shows us how #NLP techniques provide better decision making tools.

  11. U of Illinois engineering students mastermind bike for boy

    Hats off to a trio of University of Illinois engineering students, who designed a fully custom bike, complete with adaptive handlebars, gear hub and frame, to allow an eight-year old boy with a form of dwarfism to ride a bike for the first time.
