Creativity
No one has ever accused me of being exceptionally creative. I am not really crafty or artistic. But, I do have that creative part of me that craves to find an outlet. I have been working on details for New Student Orientation, and I would love to create an amazing t-shirt. We have a current design, but I think we could do MORE. I also long to find ways to really engage the students at orientation rather than lecture them. While I realize the importance of what they are hearing, I don't think they do. I think they tune it all out. So, I'm brainstorming ways to engage them from the moment they walk in the door and to keep their attention throughout the process while still providing them information. I guess I want it ALL! Any ideas?

How many kids are we talking about? Cafepress.com lets you design shirts. One conference a friend went to recently, everyone was given a little something as they walked in (a dime) and was told later how ideas are a dime a dozen etc. but still valuable. They wondered the entire time what the coin was for. IDK. Maybe a little trinket of some sort? A piece of paper - ha - you can do origami. (Wait. Are these college kids?)
