They feel powerless and unable to create change and they think they lack the experience necessary to take on positions of leadership, which ultimately causes them lose their drive and confidence to work towards their ambitions. The current education system fails to address this issue. Discoveries through communication with faculty and administration show that the University’s overall perception of students is not in harmony with the ideals they convey. UND’s mission is to encourage students to be intellectually curious and creative while preparing the next generation of leaders. However, they also hold the perception that students are immature, incapable, and only here to acquire a degree.</span></span>

== Thought Processes == Changing the paradigm from problem-centric thought is essential to accessing innovative concepts. Problem-centric thought means that we tend to recognize the problems in a situation first. When faced with good and bad aspects of a situation, the bad aspects stand out, while the good are harder to identify. And when it comes to leadership, this norm can be devastating to a team’s productivity. == Leveraging Problems as Opportunities == By leveraging society’s problems and turning them into a beneficial medium, people are able to combine the aforementioned concepts of outreach, talent, and partnerships to create lasting change within a society. Although this seems like a relatively simple concept: when a person combines the talents of many different disciplines and those actions are combined together, there is a high degree of advocacy, communication, values and culture shifts that modify the paradigm of issues on campus and abroad. == Strategic Action Agenda No.4: == · Build teams of students to solve worldly problems · Seek grant Research other University Innovation Fellow initiatives and scholarship funding for those devoting their time to these efforts · Promote the talented student at the university further on a local, national and global level · Craft curriculum that makes graduating with a combined degree in different fields more possible for multiple studentslearn from them
