*<span style="font-size:medium;">'''Students would have to complete an online training module to participate in the space.&nbsp;'''</span>*<span style="font-size:medium;">'''Space would have resources needed for innovation and entreprenurial ideas.&nbsp;'''</span>*<span style="font-size:medium;">'''There would be a design team, made of students, to help create, brainstorm, and ideate innovative thoughts.&nbsp;'''</span> == Strategy #4: Creating a Canvas Page with all Resources Available to Students on Campus. == *<span style="font-size:larger"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap">By educating all freshman and inoming students about the resources they have to voice their opinions, get academic aid, career help, and all other resources, will make the campus a better place for all.</span></span>*<span style="font-size:larger">The page will be added to the Freshman Year Experience class, so all freshman and incoming students will learn about their resources the University of St. Thomas provides.</span>*<span style="font-size:larger">Instead of structural change, we are improving the current resources available by educating students.</span> == Strategy #5: Creating a Value-based connection. == *<span style="font-size:larger">Platform dedicated to incoming Tommies or Tommies seeking a linkedin-type experience, without the high stakes atmosphere linkedin users tend to perceive. </span>*<span style="font-size:larger">The platform would promote social connectivity through values instead of interests. Something that other socials fail to do. </span>*<span style="font-size:larger">Unbundled LinkedIn and de-fragmented UST resource page. </span>*<span style="font-size:larger">Get students to form relationships with others they wouldn’t have before and which go beyond their time at UST. </span> == Strategy #6: UST Pop-Ups ==
