Idea & Innovation Society<br />

The Idea & Innovation Society positions students at the<br />

forefront of the idea and innovation community on campus,<br />

while providing unique benefits through the <strong>ECenter</strong>.<br />

The Society supports first-year students from all colleges,<br />

majors, and backgrounds by providing a network of likeminded<br />

individuals with whom to connect, collaborate,<br />

share ideas and resources so that students can run faster<br />

with their ideas.<br />

This year, 22 students from all five colleges were selected,<br />

with a diverse range of majors to foster interdisciplinary<br />

collaboration. To be accepted to the Society, applicants<br />

must be a first-year student who has already started a own<br />

company, a non-profit, or have been actively engaged in<br />

innovation in high school.<br />

Each Society member received one-on-one idea coaching<br />

from the <strong>ECenter</strong> Director, as well as monthly meetings to<br />

foster engagement between student members. Several<br />

members of the Society went on to form their own startup<br />

companies or to work in start-ups, and several of them<br />

competed in campus competitions.<br />
