About
Grounded in the power college students bring, rEDesign is a group of University of Michigan students who design and implement innovative projects, programs, and events to better the public education system.
There are two parts to our mission: Innovation and Implementation. First, we spend the beginning months of the school year soliciting education reform ideas from our members and collectively brainstorming to produce more. Then, usually in late October, we pick the top ideas and begin the implementation phase, which lasts for the rest of the year. We split into teams and have each team work to research and implement their project idea either locally, regionally, or even nationally. In the sense that we work vigorously to implement the ideas we create, we're a social entrepreneurial think-tank for education.
Being a member of rEDesign is a fun but serious commitment. We are passionate about creating change and are driven by results, typically requiring weekly meetings during our first phase (innovation) and biweekly meetings during the second phase (implementation). That said, we understand that it's always better to have fun while doing anything, so we make sure to have a very relaxed atmosphere and even host potlucks, parties, and more!
If you're interested in becoming a rEDesigner or just want to learn more, email us. To see more about what we're up to, look under the project tab above and glance through our current projects and check out our announcements.
