Twice monthly, each community has an event related to its topic. The events consist of group outings, guest speakers who are experts in the group\u0027s topic, and hands-on activities for the group, with student community members helping to mold the program content. Co-sponsored by CAE and the Department of Housing-Residence Life, the program brings exciting out-of-the-classroom knowledge and experiences to students through interaction with peers and professors. The interaction is fun and engaging, and enables students to explore interesting subjects under the leadership of a faculty member, away from the formality of a classroom.\u003C\/p\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"ThinkBig invites student participants to choose from a variety of non-academic topics, joining a residence hall community of students who meet informally once a week with a designated faculty leader."}],"uid":"27350","created_gmt":"2013-02-20 12:44:37","changed_gmt":"2016-10-08 02:02:37","author":"Ed Hamilton","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","field_event_time":{"event_time_start":"2013-02-20T19:00:00-05:00","event_time_end":"2013-02-28T00:00:00-05:00","event_time_end_last":"2013-02-28T00:00:00-05:00","gmt_time_start":"2013-02-21 00:00:00","gmt_time_end":"2013-02-28 05:00:00","gmt_time_end_last":"2013-02-28 05:00:00","rrule":"RRULE:FREQ=DAILY;INTERVAL=1;UNTIL=20130301T045959Z;WKST=SU","timezone":"America\/New_York"},"extras":[],"groups":[{"id":"98291","name":" Experiential \u0026 Engaged Learning"},{"id":"98331","name":"Think Big"}],"categories":[],"keywords":[{"id":"972","name":"communities"},{"id":"59171","name":"Living - Learning Communities"}],"core_research_areas":[],"news_room_topics":[],"event_categories":[{"id":"1792","name":"Arts and Performance"},{"id":"1791","name":"Student sponsored"}],"invited_audience":[],"affiliations":[],"classification":[],"areas_of_expertise":[],"news_and_recent_appearances":[],"phone":[],"contact":[],"email":[],"slides":[],"orientation":[],"userdata":""}}}
