Changes

After the above -mentioned steps, this machine that has been created needs to continually churn out people with this new mindset that has been repressed through traditional schooling. In turn, having people leaving with their minds expanded we will constantly need a fresh supply of new minds. Seeing their peers and students get excited, this will spark the next wave of students who want to be a part of this movement. To keep the system from collapsing we propose having a governing factor in the group. Of course , you have the President, but then you also need the President Elect. Someone who you can train and entrust that once you've left the next semester, they will be able to pick right back up where you left off. To keep the system from crumbling everytime every time leadership has gone, this will be a necessary part of the group. We can do this for many different roles, leader/co-leader, treasurer, etc...

== Tactic #3: Target Highschoolers High Schoolers ==

We need more students to get involved! We think that we need to start on this before students get to South Plains College. Being a community college, we have a lot of students coming in from surrounding towns to "knock out the first two years". If we were to get those students involved in I&E while they are still in highschoolhigh school, what will SPC look like in a few years? There will be an huge a dynamic change. We have the opportunity to reach students NOW instead of waiting until they come to us. We could host a Highschool day at SPC. We could do a few workshops to really catch their attention and get them interested. This could be done by just SEARCh club, or they could team up with other student organizations and make a huge event that will draw more students in.

One way to get more people involved is to reach wider. We want to reach the community around us with Innovation and Entrepreneurship ideas and practices! We want to host workshops in local businesses or community centers and invited EVERYONE. We could make a family workshop that people would want to attend as a fun town activity. We could expose parents to the idea and they could help spread the word. If we give people a positive/fun connotation associated with I&E, they will want to be a part of it. The idea of entrepreneurship can be overwhelming or intimidating to those who don't know much about it. Let's fix that! Let's show the whole community what we are about! Project Leader - SEARCh Club Projected Completion Date: Host the first one Fall 2018. Possible annual event. == Tactic #5: Make Multi-Club Events a Priority == We need the support of the other organizations on campus. SEARCh is currently comprised of mostly Math and Engineering students. We need diversity to keep our ideas from becoming stagnant. We need the mindsets from English to Welding. We need the perspective of other long-standing groups on campus. How can we support each other on our mission to bring students together and get them involved on campus?

== Tactic #5: Make Multi-club Events We need to make Student Life events a Priority ==priority. When they host an Open House event and invited clubs to set up booths, we should be there. When they hold General Assemblies to hear the comments of the general student population, we should be there. When they want to have clubs collaborate on an event to help raise awareness about campus involvement, we should be there! On a practical level, we plan to include this in the Vision Statement for SEARCh. That they would be an organization that places high priority on collaborating with other people to accomplish a common goal. After all, networking is a valuable, VALUABLE thing.
