During this semester, me and my team decided to promote inclusion on campus by creating a proposal to fix the elevators on campus. This would promote inclusion by making Agnes Scott’s campus more accommodating to people with physical disabilities or injuries. To start our research, we created a google questionnaire in order to figure out which elevators we should prioritize and why. We then spread this poll to the ASC Discord and Facebook group. In the end, we concluded that we should prioritize the elevators in Walters and Winship.
The second main step was to reach out to the people who were responsible for the elevators on campus. This led us to Jessica Owen, who was in charge of maintenance on campus, who was the biggest help to us on this project. She gave us the details on the elevators’ contract, contract owner, and the future plans for the dorms themselves. She was also very happy that we were doing this project and was willing to help us further if we win and get the seed money. In conclusion, I am very proud of the work that me and my group did on this proposal.
