== Project One: Create<br/> ==
<span style="font-size:medium;"><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">With carefully established protocol, we can offer MakerSpace workshops where students are welcome to observe, learn, and interact with the space with a knowledgeable guide. They can recieve beginner tutorials on the proper use of equipment, as well as a variety of other intellectual resources that will enhance their ability to be more innovative. These workshops can be once a month and cater to a certain theme, in which will open up another opportunity for us to bring in experienced innovators/creators from the local community.</span></span>
== Project Two: Pursue<br/> ==
<span style="font-size:medium;">Having an award that is given every year at the university will help motivate students to create meaningful ventures throughout the year. This will give students something to work towards while working on their ventures and promote entrepreneurship and innovation on campus. Instead of giving the startup a large cash prize every year, we can give them an award of value, not just money.</span>
== Project Four: Teach == === <span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">Tactic 1: Weekend Workshop</span></span> === <span style="font-size:medium;">Creating a weekend workshop on campus to teach students about problem solving through Design Thinking. Through this workshop, students will be exposed to empathy, interdisciplinary teamwork and resources our campus has. Students will be challenged to identify a problem (possibly at the school) and work together so propose a solution. At the end of the workshop, students will have the opportunity to continue to pursue the solution they defined, and may be awarded a financial prize to do so.</span> === <span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">Tactic 2: Freshman Workshop</span></span> === <span style="font-size:medium;"><span class="TextRun SCXW32809281" lang="EN-US" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; user-select: text; -webkit-user-drag: none; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Calibri, Calibri_MSFontService, sans-serif; line-height: 19px; font-variant-ligatures: none !important;"><span class="NormalTextRun SCXW32809281" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; user-select: text; -webkit-user-drag: none; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent; background-color: inherit;">Revamp of the existing Freshman Workshop requirement to incorporate a curriculum for problem solving with Design Thinking (DT).

This will allow students to define their goals for their education, expanding their ambitions and creativity to shape the rest of their college career.</span></span></span> === <span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">Tactic 3: Solving the World's Problems Class</span></span> === <span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">Expand the work done in Freshman Workshop to a core class for credit. In this class, students will continue to be taught and challenged to solve problems for others, using their skills and passions. Curriculum will include Design Thinking, inspiration through speakers, interactive challenges, and projects.</span></span> [https://drive.google.com/file/d/1ePlQd-RUbbX3mVX78ZxRMP8sT0Cm30jF/view?usp=sharing https://drive.google.com/file/d/1ePlQd-RUbbX3mVX78ZxRMP8sT0Cm30jF/view?usp=sharing] == Project Five: Incentivize ==
=== <span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">Tactic 1: Student-led investment fund</span></span> ===
<span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">Starting an investment fund led by students will give students to identify and student startups within the community. Having an investment fund run by and for students will provide capital for student-led startups and allow access to the mentoring of local entrepreneurs. This will also expose students to the Portland startup community. Raising capital while you’re still attending school is very difficult, and has the potential to deter students from pursuing their ventures. Therefore, a student-led investment fund has the potential to be a valuable program at the University of Portland</span></span>
