Students working in groups will produce campaigns intended to foster a specific, beneficial change. Campaigns will last throughout the semester. Student groups will regularly engage challenges intended to expand their campaigns. Groups' responses to these challenges will be shared with the class and evaluated by the instructor. Groups are expected to maintain and grow their campaigns during the semester. At the end of the semester, groups will deliver presentations that highlight the progress they have made. The class will vote on the campaigns' achievements, and group extra credit will be assigned based on voting results.

To form groups, each student will deliver a one-minute pitch to the class outlining a prospective advocacy initiative. (Examples from previous classes include: supplementary campus LGBTQIA support, child literacy, supporting campus cultural centers, addressing local human trafficking, and expanding campus parking.) Based on these proposals, the class will vote on five topics to pursue. Students whose pitches are selected will receive individual extra credit. The class will then form groups based on the chosen topics.

The most effective topics for this project are ones that are feasible: they focus narrowly and target goals that are manageable in the given timeframe. Topic choice is open save for anything that contravenes the UNCW Code of Student Life (including the Seahawk Respect Compact) or induces violation of any municipal, state, or federal laws.
