The Better Place Project
During spring semester of the First Year Experience, the Learning Community program participates in an integrated learning project known as the Better Place project. For this project, students choose a social issue of explore challenges that are pertinent to their interests, then develop a plan to raise awareness for such issues and challenges. My LC chose to raise awareness of Autism through a bake sale held in the Campus Rec Center breezeway. Though the sole goal of the bake sale was to raise awareness instead of raise money, we received almost $200 in donations that we then donated to Autism Speaks. Attached is a PowerPoint I created and used to present my LC's project to other learning communities as well as to the faculty and staff involved in the First Year Experience.
