<span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif"><span id="docs-internal-guid-a2659499-e493-43c2-e7dc-df8d255f0b13"><span style="font-size: 14.6667px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-color: transparent; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap">Smith College is a small women’s college located in Northampton, Massachusetts. With our liberal arts education, few requirements, and encouragement to think collaboratively, Smith students have developed interdisciplinary mindsets that thrive on an innovative campus. With three makerspaces on campus, classes in design thinking and entrepreneurship, and workshops for faculty, Smith has an abundance of resources to help cultivate innovation within the student body. Yet, due to lack of advertising and lack of reaching out, many students with great ideas have missed the opportunity to develop them further. Our goals, which are detailed below in greater detail, will help foster this growth and awareness of innovation on campus. From a concentration to a maker market, our goals engage with students in a variety of settings in order to reach out to a wider set of scholars. While this is our first year with University Innovations Fellows on campus, we hope to start a dialogue amongst students, faculty, and the administration in which we instigate change and advocate for a more entrepreneurial campus.</span></span></span>

Students don’t need to stay in their cramped rooms due to the loss of their favorite study space. Pop-Up Study Spaces will adapt to the needs of its users. The Study Space is created by pushing together two white boards, providing sticky notes, whiteboard markers, tables, and chairs. Students can hold meetings, study with a friend, or cram for a test while enjoying the outdoors! This Study Space would remain in a single location for a single week. At this time, students would crowdsource a new location for the makerspace. We will start with a single pilot Study Space before opening up additional Study Spaces tailored to the specific needs of each major (e.g. computer monitors for Computer Science majors).</span></span></span>
