Identify an emerging issue that Columbia College students face and proposal a research that may help address the issue. The issue must be an emerging one and cannot be previous solved. It can be of any type, such as educational issues, course enrollment and registration, dining services, dorm and living, traffic, campus security, student activity, etc. It must be at the individual level, meaning it is the issue every student would face. You may focus on day students, evening students, or both. You may also focus on freshmen, sophomore, or other classes, or all students.
Make sure your issue is emergent, significant (for its impact on students), and solvable (for instance, you have the resources to collect data and solve the problem). When you frame the proposal, also think about how you are going to collect data using either secondary data or primary data (such as survey, in project 3 and 6).
