== Introduction ==
Creating a new design or innovation space on campus appears as a daunting task on the surface. Instead of a blueprint about "how to" build and outfit on-campus, a current University Innovation Fellow and I, Jared Karp, discussed exactly what bring a design and innovation space to campus really means. Furthermore, we endevored into the questions of why and how this space to empower people to generate their own vision and execute this vision. The questions might remain in one's head...would this prove any value to the student on my campus. The answer we concluded was, absolutely. The goal of this space is not only to ideate, tinker, and network but also inspire a new generation of entrepreneurs. Through this how to guide, I hope you get a sense of not just what is going on within this space and how to built it, but WHY these things are happening. == Need and Goals == == Academic Permission == == Support == == Location == == Activities == == Materials == == Management == == Launch == == Lessons and Tips ==
