VISION
In 400 words or less, please describe your Big Idea. What is it and why have you decided to work on it this year? How may it strengthen your program, campus, and/or community?
Our Big Idea involves engaging our campus further in community service and the tracking of the hours of said service. We would like to rebrand and market our non-Bonner community service hours tracking system, TigerPoints, in hopes of increasing the percentage of student body using the site. We would like have at least 50% of our campus registered on this system. Through this site, we will be able to better recruit non-Bonners for our service projects and events.
