It is currently used as a classroom/meeting space but we will create a program based on the “Pursue” and “Spinout” components of the Landscape Canvas. We have come together with a Fellow from last year to coordinate and create a model for this program. It will serve students by giving them access to startup resources. This will enable students to </span><span style="font-size: 12pt; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">commit to an opportunity provided by Menlo. We want more connections like GSVLabs brought to campus while also utilizing our Alumni and Professors mentorship.

<br/><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><span id="docs-internal-guid-39aa0a41-5458-3973-461d-2a2a4daeb337"><span style="font-size: 12pt; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-color: transparent; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Menlo College is currently lacking of connections with the community in our area. Creating a new space entirely dedicated to the community involvement would be helpful to increase our impact on the society. The space can contribute in a wide variety of activities dedicate to our community including tutoring for children in the community, and tax assistance through the Menlo Accounting Club. It would be beneficial both for Menlo and for the community. It would create awareness of Menlo College, SERV hours opportunities for the students, networking opportunities and hands on experience for all the students who will be involved. On the other hand, the community would receive an affordable tutoring and tax service and it would motivate children to continue their studies at higher level institutions.</span></span></span>
