The club plans Non-provisional Patent Applications to be launched in at least two per year (Fall 2014 and several students that are committed to being on the executive board have already started planning out the vision of this interest group. That vision is to truly bring about the imagination that all students embraced as children but has been lost through the journey of our young adulthood. There is great power in the potential of imagination and creativity that can change the world and every college student should be a part of that. The goal is to give students an environment where they are free to think big and outside of the classroom about societal/global problems they are passionate about- Spring 2017).

The club can meet once a week facilitate technology transfer and discuss problems and work in teams to brainstorm ways to solve them. This club will be an avenue to give the students resources such as internships, venture firm capital information, StartUp Weekend info, etccommercialization (Fall 2015).

<span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; line-height: ''Goal 1.4; font-size: large;">Freshman Seminar</span>Develop plan to increase alumni giving to support campus Innovation Competition.''
Freshman Seminar (FRSM 1000/FRSM 1100) is a yearlong mandatory course that all incoming freshman must take to satisfy graduation requirements. The goals of the Freshman Year Experience are to empower freshmen with the skills and support needed for college success (and Xavier success), enhance their professional development, and understand their role and mission as Xavier students. Every year, over 600 students fill the seats in these classrooms and this would be a perfect opportunity to introduce students to innovation and entrepreneurship. This course could give students the chance to start thinking about world problems and collaborating in teams to find solutions to those problems. My advisor plans to set up a meeting with the faculty that teach Freshman Seminar and discuss the goals of the NCIIA, along with the importance of promoting student creativity on our campuses. If all FRSM faculty members could donate at least 30% of each class time discussing these issues, Xavier is that much closer instilling innovation and entrepreneurship in the early curriculum for the college students. Team LeadersObjectives: Professor Mark Quin, Dr. Partha Bhattacharjee, Dr. Mandal, Chigozie Dike, etc.

A presentation and discussion between faculty members should occur where FRSM professors are informed about the mission of NCIIA and the positive consequences that will result from implementing innovation and entrepreneurship in their classroomsDevelop plan to obtain private sector funding to sponsor campus Innovation Competition. (Fall 2014)''
The Student Government Association represents the student body in the university-policy making. They also are responsible for many campus activities that result in a large student turnout. Other organizations such as Xavier Activities Board, Biology Club, Chemistry Club, Public Policy Club, and Enactus are just a few popular organizations on campus that can work with X.U.CREATE to increase the visibility of this new organization to students. By doing fundraisers, community service events, or even sponsoring speakers or activities together, more advanced clubs can help spread awareness to the innovation club.
The executive board of the innovation club needs to create social media networks after a charter has been awarded to the organization. Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn accounts are very popular ways to convey the message of the group. This will increase the amount of students and professionals aware of the organization create a means of attracting more members who may not be on campus as much, and display the ideas/prototypes that members have created. Social media is changing how the world receives information and that is something that should be taken advantage of. The innovation club has a goal of promoting creativity and entrepreneurial mindsets among college students. This positive vision deserves to be shared via these sites and create an environment where students, innovators, and entrepreneurs can share ideas.
