Final Project

  For my final video projects, I have decided to focus on the problem that all residents on campus face, boring weekends. Many students who live on campus go home on the weekends not because they miss their family, but because there aren't many activities that you can do on campus. As residents, we pay so much money to live on campus, and we do not spend the entire week there. As someone who stays on the weekend, I can tell you that the campus is dead. No one is ever there and it makes it even more boring.
  For the solution, I want to focus on asking people who go home why they go home, and what could be changed on campus to make them stay for the weekend. I also want to ask people who stay on campus for the weekend why they stay, and what they do while they are here. I want to see how many people stay because they want to, and how many people stay because they can't get a ride home.
The way that I am going to do my video is:

-Title Page

-First question (Do you go home on  the weekends. What do you go home or why not and what do you do on campus.)

-Interviews and quotes to answer the question

-Second question(How could SCSU get you to stay or make the weekends more fun.)

-Interviews and quotes to answer questions

- Facts about things that SCSU offers on weekends and information about shuttles and where they go.

-There will be pictures of activities that have gone on during weekends and other things.

  I am hoping that this video will convince people to stay on campus weekend and show people that there are activities that go on. It might make the weekends more fun if people were there and it may even convince groups like RHA to create more activities on the weekend because more students are staying.

  1. I like this topic -- many people are talking about how SCSU is not a good place to be because there is nothing to do on weekends. You seem to be taking a much more solution-oriented approach: stay here on weekends and do stuff so it will be fun. Be sure to propose specific things you'd like to see happening on weekends and the channels people can take to make those things happen (there are organizations on campus who program events so people will have things to do.) Maybe also consult the events calendar to see what different types of things SCSU does offer on a typical weekend.
