=== <big><u>Startegy #1: Study Abroad Mentorship with International Students</u></big> ===
==== Description Overview ====
Develop a mentorship program between international students and US citizen to create a cultural exchange. The goal is to make a more inclusive community on campus and inspire curiosity to explore the world. It would be a volenteer program in which students from all around campus can complete a survey/form to share their interests. Then, the students are paired up based on interests. There would be an orientation to go over the program and what it entails.
'''Team Leader:''' Carolina Hernandez Ruiz
'''Background:''' Many international students come to the USA without knowing anything about the culture. Most of the times, those students just talk with people from their same homecountry, therefore they don't get inverse in the community and experience the "american" culture. On the other hand, they are many U.S citizens who have never leave the country, and who want to study abroad but are scared to be in another country by themselves.
We want to connect all students around campus. We understand that may be challenges regarding students interests, specially between undegrad and grad international students. Another issue is the time commitment students would have if they do the program. We plan to contact the different students programs around the university, ex. Honors Program, LAS, MAC scholars, and the different Residential Colleges (Health Professions, Engineering, Education, Business). We want to work with the Volunteer Office to promote the mentorship program, which can count for volunteer hours for the students. Also, create a space on campus to meet new people. Students would go to this space on campus and meet new students, something similar to "English Cafe".
=='''Strategy #1: Developing a Culture of Creativity'''==
==Tactic #1: Social Media Account Content Delivery==
=== Description: The focus on the creation of an interactive resource center located within the cmich.edu website is the end goal for this strategy. To begin, we must start somewhere past various agile sprint cycles that must be developed to implement the website transformation... this is why, as we are meeting together with teams to edit cmich.edu, we will start with social media. ===
To begin with general resources, our base-case account will be built out of Instagram.
The Creative Jam would be a great idea to get the interest of creativity embedded into students and make it, "if you participate you get entered to win a giftcard,” so the barriers to entry are as minimal as possible. The Creative Jam, based on input from our stakeholders has been pivoted to be a series of built up events, or "pop-ups" that will be very lean and easy to build over time.
