We used games to learn complex concepts like contrasting pure capitalism and cooperative economics.

The students showed they are capable of being the face of a community action.\r\n\r\nThe Emotional \"Glow\": Pride and Purpose - The students' sense of success was deeply tied to human connection. \r\n\r\nStudents Loved: The Free Store, the Escape Room, and the student-led outreach. There was high student ownership and deep community connection. \r\n\r\nFulfillment of Mission: Students felt a profound sense of achievement seeing the \"vision fulfilled.\" Seeing visitors smile and bringing in community members who \"might not have come otherwise\" validated their hard work.\r\n\r\nDirect Impact: Success wasn't just a high attendance number; it was the specific moment a guest escaped the Escape Room and immediately began \"checking their own lease.\"\r\n\r\nPersonal Growth: Many students thrived in high-stakes roles—interviewing guests, speaking to the press, and guiding visitors.
