Creativity Retreat

I am serving on the Oklahoma State University Creativity Initiative steering committee. This committee is committed to making OSU an international leader in creativity and innovation. I became a part of this process in late September or early October, and last night it really began as we had a cocktail party, dinner and speaker at the beginning our our creativity retreat. Our speaker was Lloyd Armstrong for USC. He talked about what makes a multi-faceted university, and today the steering committee will begin the task of making OSU a leader. An all-day retreat here in Stillwater will hopefully lead us to some answers and a plan of action. It's been set up like this: It's the year 2010, and OSU is an international leader in creativity and innovation. What did we do to get to that point? I am the undergraduate representative on this committee, so I hope I can represent the student body and make sure our steps will help from a student perspective. After the meeting last night, I had a lot of thoughts/ideas, so today will be exciting!
