*<span style="font-size:medium;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">Description - The University of Oklahoma has a ton of resources available for its students, but they aren't necessarily used as widely as they should be. The problem is, there is no sense of community on campus, especially between different colleges. Our goal is to unite students across the College of Arts and Science, College of Engineering, Business College, and Petroleum and Geological Engineering College through fostering a STEM community. By breaking down barriers, OU can put a spotlight on the vast array of opporunities already available, and pave the way for more students to discover their passion for innovation and entrepreneuriship.</span></span>

*<span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">Description - </span></span><span style="font-size:medium;"><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><span id="docs-internal-guid-8127b793-7541-e6a7-995e-9697da29134f"><span style="vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">With a form for students to present their ideas to faculty, the hope is that students can work with and get feedback from professors who have experience in a field that could be beneficial to the students success in whatever startup/project they are pursuing. Currently if a student is interested in working on research they can search the OU website for professors and see what they are researching. If the student is also interested they can reach out to the Professor and ask to help with their research. Taking this concept, but refining and reversing it, I want to create a way for students to present a startup/project by filling out a form and getting a list of faculty that could be beneficial to their ideas and means to contact them. In addition, a step further would be to notify faculty when an idea has been presented by a student that falls under their experience. If the professor is interested or has knowledge to offer to the student they can choose to contact the student back.</span></span></span></span>
