Strategy #1: Collaboration to Spark Action

Tactic #1: Annual University Wide "Demo Day"

• Description:  Many different groups and departments around campus have their own ways of showcasing student's work; however, most of these showcases are limited to people a part of the individual group or a competition that restricts the amount of groups that get to show case their work.  This annual demo day would be an opportunity for all students with varying kinds of projects (from musical performances and paintings to apps and robots) to show their hard work and appreciate the work of students from other backgrounds. There would be no competition aspect to this event as the goal of it is to encourage and applaud all students' work and create interdisciplinary relationships/connections.
