Reflection from the 10.10.13 Student Voice Design Lounge
The Design Lounge hosted by Student Voice and made possible by Dell & Intel, was a huge success! The gathering of many student-led and student-serving initiatives that engaged in casual salon-style conversations, lead to a night of much collaboration, connections and calls to action! Check out this link for pictures from the event and the brief reflection below, with thought-provoking questions for your consideration.
