Mission
As members of a technical institution and society, we and other members of the institution must know the ethical and social implication of science and technology. Our mission in the WPI community includes but is not limited to:
- Raising campus consciousness regarding science, technology, and society (STS) issues.
- Encouragement of serious student involvement in STS debates via workshops, projects, lectures, etc.
- Examining current issues to see which, if any, are appropriate for immediate social or political action by concerned scientists or technologists.
- The sharing and discussion of IQP and other WPI projects at local and national meetings either by WPI Chapter members or other qualified persons.
