Projects that are tried and true are always good like holding resource fairs were students can get info on services that are provided by the school and local community. I always enjoyed the awareness projects were guest speakers and organizations shared information with students regarding a certain topic like “Substance Abuse”, “Identity Theft”, and “Sexual Health”. Another project that would benefit students is a mentor program where upper-division students are mentors to incoming freshmen or recent transfer students.

Play with some projects and combine some too. Think big and think small. If I was looking for a person to fill this position I would like them to have goals that they want to complete by the end of their term, an attention for small concerns as a means for solving bigger issues.

Good luck and just be genuine about what you want to accomplish.
