It's quite is a known fact that environment has a large influence on students and the way they might approach activities outside of the classroom. Focusing on the environment within UDon campus, we believe that students need to be surrounded by the peers that strive to do that same things they aim to do. Whether that's the goal is to excel in the classroom, to start a new Registered Student Organization (RSO), or to pursure groundbreaking research, we believe that you we become the average of the top 5 five people that you we hang out with. As a result, To that end we'd would like to propose an initiative that would provide a place space for students to immerse themselves among peers they want to be influenced by , in their area of interest, . This would be an environment where students feel as if they were are all working towards similar goals and shared ambitions.&nbsp;In fact, this was one of the goals for the Delaware Design Institute (DDI), which was established over a year ago on campus, but eventually lost momentum. We would like to revive the DDI, which would be a place for students to pursue and explore interdisciplinary collaboration, a place to understand and employ design processes for projects they care about. DDI would serve as an institute that supports and promotes interdisciplinary collaboration and design thinking. This would be a long term project.
