== Goal<br/> ==
We want to make this area an extension of the Pryor Learning Center (a study building on campus). Refitting it with newer technologies, what the incoming students what to have, and what old students feel it needs. We also plan to propose using the vacant area above the floor to extend on the project even more.<div><span style="background-color:#ffff00">Our goal is to create pop-up creativity classes that help to facilitate the ability for students to creativity and actively solve problems present on campus by using resources avalible to them. We do not want to push onto them jargon words and such but use words familiar to them that they feel comfortable using and understanding.</span><br/></div>
