== Strategy #1: Improve Entrepreneurship Awareness<br/> == 
Following are an array of strategies that will fully address Gap #1 over a 2-3 year period:
=== Tactic #1: Student Residential Weekend Workshop === *Description: Currently at Bucknell, there are six distinct themed Residential Colleges and many affinity houses. Some of them are closely related to I&E, such as Social Technology Residential College and the Engineering & Innovation House. Students chose to live in those houses are interested in I&E. By creating weekend workshop gatherings, we can foster the collaboration between students and help them start working on their ideas. Getting started is always the first hurdle. This will help students who are already interested in I&E to overcome the get started dilemma.
*Team Leader:: RAs
*Milestones: ** Arrange the first Meeting with RAs on related residential halls and houses.** Reserve the workshop space and get permission from school.** RAs arrange the interest meeting on their individual hall.** Propose a year long weekly events based on student's interests.** Start the project. 
=== Tactic #2: TEDx Event === 
*Description: Bucknell currently has a speaker series called: Tech/No. It invites famous authors, businessman, managers to have a open one-on-one interview. Students showed a lot interests in those event. Having a TEDx event will further foster the innovation ecosystem at Bucknell.
*Team Leader:: TBA
*Milestones: ** Apply TEDx event license** Invite speakers** Reserve event space** Advertise the event on campus** Hold the TEDx event
== Tactic #3: Student focused Start-up Workshop ==
