==Project 1: Viking Entrepreneur ==
====Key Tactics:====
*Promote student entrepreneurs' businesses.
*Provide a reliable and stable real-world experience for student entrepreneurs.
*identify and list all student businesses.
*Partner with the business department to guide and advise student entrepreneurs.
===Summary===
For a small campus, Elizabeth City has the pleasure of educating various entrepreneurs in different mediums. Implementing a Viking Entrepreneur mobile app will allow students to connect and monetize on the businesses all while adding to their resumes to help prepare them for life post-graduation. Viking Entrepreneur will have a list of registered students with businesses to set up links to their social media and websites. This will be an easy hotspot for their businesses. In order to make sure that students are punctual and serious with their businesses, there will be a onetime mandatory fee of $30. This will go to workshops catered to entrepreneurship, such as branding, content creation, financing, and so on. With the Viking Entrepreneur app it will allow for students to build those business skills outside of the classroom and in real time.
==Project 2: Monthly Talk Session==
====Key Tactics:====
*Conduct a monthly talk session to help students learn to balance life and college while adopting an innovative mindset.
*Help students participate in activities that can break up monotony and relax the mind.
*Partnering with the Department of Health and Human Studies, Peer Wellness Ambassadors, and Student Health Services to help organize the events and gather monthly speakers.

===Summary===
Thankfully, here at Elizabeth City State University, students have the chance to receive great opportunities and offers. The university offers various scholarships, grants, internships, career opportunities, and much more. However, students have expressed that the workload can drastically affect their mental health over time. Implementing this project would help students on campus learn to balance life and college while adopting an innovative mindset. Innovation essentially means introducing something new or undergoing a new change. Students on campus experience change daily, and assuming an innovative perspective can help them learn to adapt to their unique personal and college situations and changes. Hence, each monthly session would feature new concepts, tips, and different speakers, which educate students on how to embrace an innovative mindset and implement it into every aspect of their lives to break the monotony and reduce the risk of burnout.

==Project 3: Communication APP REMIND==
====Key Tactics:====
*Students can have instant access to their professors through the use of the application known as REMIND.
*It is known to improve communication between professors and students.
*A tool in which we can work with IT to install
*Professors can set office hours.
*
===Summary:===
Implementing the idea of the Communication APP REMIND will significantly impact student-professor relationships here on campus. Remind is a private messaging platform that one can use essentially on any device. It is free to use and possesses a clean, simple interface that we can work with IT to install. With Viking Engage and the campus's GroupMe being taken away, there is no longer an efficient communication tool for students and professors to use to communicate with one another. Using REMIND can fill that void as it aims to help teachers and students communicate simultaneously. Having instant access to an educator can enable students to feel comfortable, more connected to the college culture, and better understand the material being taught in their courses.
