There have been complaints about the bus not going to walmart often enough or at a convenient time for everybody. If we had WSU students sign up to volunteer a couple hours to take international students places like Walmart or Walgreens or anywhere else they may need to go, it would not only allow them to obtain their essentials for living, but it could also help international students make a connection with other students on campus.</span>

This will be a hands-on class where students not only learn about the design-thinking process and the resources on campus, but also about issues in our community and campus. There will be guest speakers of changemakers in our community and our campus. Students will learn how to be changemakers in our community as well as what needs to be changed.&nbsp;</span></span> <span id="docs-internal-guid-ce81d5aa-7fff-3e1d-4128-99d326bff553"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">In the second semester, students will work in teams to develop and cultivate unique ideas and concepts. During this semester, they will develop these ideas into a successful event, product, club or program for Wichita State or the Wichita community. They will collaborate together and keep each other and the RA and professor updated on their progress. Finally, students will have the opportunity to showcase their efforts in a semester-ending competition with the other teams within Innovation LLC.</span></span><div><br/><br/></div>
