== Strategy 2: Combat the following issues with I&E resources on campus: they are too competitive with each other, they are too exclusive, they serve too small a niche, and they are inaccessible. ==
=== Tactic 1: Resources are in constant competition with each other===
* Currently, different I&E initiatives on campus are competing for funding, visibility, and students. How might we encourage them to work together, and also prevent further competitive initiatives from beginning?
* Create a map of I&E resources available to students at Georgia Tech. Use the following categories to sort the resources: maker space, mentorship, funding, classes, events, industry connections
=== Tactic 2: Resources are too exclusive, and silo-ed off in different departments===
* Partner with the Vertically Integrated Projects program
* Teach classes to students in VIPs, who are often diverse in major and age
=== Tactic 3: Resources are too inaccessible, and too under-the-radar===
* Initiate a low-barrier to entry course for freshmen that introduces them to design thinking through makerspaces
* Each person in the class gets to work on a tangible project where they apply design thinking, and can visualize what success looks like
