A few student groups focused on the growing Atlanta film and television industry as a possible job site for citizens returning from prison. Another team developed Blu Apron-style meal kits that can be prescribed by physicians for patients with diabetes.
The top three solutions included making public school yearlong to address lagging academic achievement, creating a student cooperative to negotiate tuition prices with universities and turning food waste into a food source as a way to tackle methane emissions.
“All in all, it was inspiring to spend an evening talking about nothing but solutions in a current climate consumed by nothing but problems,” Longhofer said.
