== Our Priority ==
We would like to pursue expanding KES' and T-Space's engagement from mostly Kettering Students to more of the community. We are located in Flint, Michigan, and only a few miles away are two other college campuses. We are interested in trying to engage these campuses and involve them in any way whatsoever. Additionally, we are interested in expanding involvement to others in the community. We have found that there are many entrepreneurial minded people in Flint's community, and combining this with some I&E minded students at the other campuses, we could tap into an incredible resource and all collaborate together.
We would also like to effect the mindset of the Kettering students to empower them to see their capabilities in innovation and understand that they could be entrepreneurs.

Additionally, we are interested in surveying active students in KES and who use the T-Space to see what improvements in infrastructure they believe would be beneficial to their development of an I&E mindset. Tailoring the two resources to the people who actually use them could be largely beneficial for more fluid thought and I&E mindset.
= Kettering BIN / Maker Faire Fair =
== Description ==
Our idea is to create a functioning club that will support students in project like works and give them an area on campus or event in which students could to showcase their projects and inititatives initiatives to other students, faculty, and community. We also thought that With this we could host plan to kick it off with a competition Maker Faire in which teams are formed and compete to create solve the challenge. Allowing for multiple degree type input and work. Creating a more interdisciplinary collaboration environment for the best project in one specified field students. These Challenges would be either of an open nature where the students get to pick the challenge they want to solve or leave it open a goal like challenge where there is a desired end goal. Our first Maker Fair was a 24 hour challenge were 20 students had to design something for collony living on a project of each groups' choosingplanet with different species and conditions.

The proposal is to bring the event back. As TED talks gain popularity both inside and outside the classroom, the event will give members of the Flint, Michigan and Kettering University communities a chance to share their stories and their problems. Many Kettering students pride themselves as problem-solvers, and this event will help them focus their energies in order to solve problems in their neighborhoods.
= Campus Life App<br/> =
== Proposal ==
<font face="arial, helvetica, sans-serif">Provide access to all Kettering University resorces in one place. This will allow students and faculty to get conected to others on campus who can help with classes, projects, reaserch, and much more. This app will allow students to see upcoming events they can sign up for and download the information to their Kettering google calendar. After surveying a range of students and faculty to provide useful information and effective results. This will allow students to be more active on campus and help us get connected.</font>
