2022 Ideas Competition
Moving Beyond Ad-Hoc, Hacked, and Underfunded.
How can we design purposeful spaces that serve the whole student and support student success?
Academic institutions at all levels are asked to serve myriad roles to students beyond "the educator"- they can be the doctor, cook, counselor, social worker, babysitter, mentor, or even employer. As we move out of the pandemic some of these roles have become increasingly important, not only for students but also for the communities they live in.
Current educational spaces don't often work to provide these services in an equitable, safe, and comfortable environment. They also don't invite the community in as clients or collaborators for these services.
