The Project

The group project for this semester was a interesting and long process.  My groups problem was trying to increase social communication in dorms. When trying to find a solution we identified another problem, the programs and events that are thrown, are boring. From surveys and our own personal experience we noticed that many people felt that the programs were boring and to educational. Some students did not even attend one program this year because they thought it wouldn’t be fun.It is a problem because in college there should be a healthy amount of social communication with others.  Social communication is one of the largest pieces of a full college experience and we feel that it starts with the dorms. In dorms you are living with so many different types of people If we improve the programs we could help connect more people, open up different doors and bridge gaps between people. Some people have trouble making friends so our goal would bring people out their shells to make friends and have fun at an event that they would enjoy. We used the question, how well do you know your neighbor express the lack of communication between one another and how it should be between the people you live with. In conclusion our major problem is that there is not enough communication in dorms.  There should a healthy level of communication throughout the whole building.
