== Tactic #1: Let's Get it Started in Here! ==
We need the faculty and administration to understand just how important I&E is to the student body! Let's give our group of innovative students a voice to be had. We need a way to reach the rest of the student body and engage them so they know that the culture is changing. We need to adjust people's thinking. So To do this, we host speakers, but not just any speakers. We need speakers who are going to do more than just give a motivational speech about how great I&E is. We need speakers & events that will promote a culture of change, that when students leave, they feel as though they received something quantifiable and feel like they can take that something and apply it to their daily lives. This is what the student body wants, and as the leaders of this culture change, it is our responsibility to provide it.

= Strategy #3: Let it Grow! =
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 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...
<br/>Project Leader - Tad DavisOur overall goal here is going to be seeing this group grow from semester to semester, and eventually have a chapter at Tech to encourage recruitment of students from SPC, to help contribute to the I&E ecosystem at Texas Tech and SPC.
