POWER OF PLACE
The MSOE University Scholars Honors Program is centered around the transformative power of placemaking where students blend their analytical skills with creativity to develop innovative community-centered solutions. We are excited to share how students, a network of community partners, and mentors come together as placemakers in Milwaukee.
“In order to do something big, to think globally and act globally, one starts with something small and starts where it counts. Practice, then, is about making the ordinary special and the special more widely accessible—expanding the boundaries of understanding and possibility with vision and common sense. It is about building densely interconnected networks, crafting linkages between unlikely partners and organizations, and making plans without the usual preponderance of planning. It is about getting it right for now and at the same time being tactical and strategic about later.”
