The Cook Counseling Center has partnered with the College of Architecture, Arts, and Design's industrial design students to develop a sensory bike. Members of Cook Counseling will use the bike across campus to initiate conversations around their community resilience model (CRM). See how students were impacted when given the challenge to design around the CRM model. For more information about the CRM model, visit https://ucc.vt.edu/outreach_consultation/crm.html.

We have partnered with cook counseling to develop a sensory bike. So what we're trying to do is outfit an electric bike with a series of activities that students on the Virginia Tech campus could engage their senses. M is more than just happy and stab, and there's a lot more depth to it. So it's really interesting to be able to kind of figure out what that means and how I can better impact people. Made me more cognizant of how other people feel. I think a lot of college students think that kind of being in the high zone is something to be celebrated a little bit. You're really high functioning kind of bouncing around. That can be really productive, but that's also long term really exhaust. So I think that just focusing on kind of bringing myself back to this point of calmer center is something that I wasn't really focusing on before, but I really will in the future. What's interesting to me about Prim is the community aspect of it. So when put counseling first approached me and I got really interested in the idea of working on this project because I believe looking at the students full health is really important to their education and their capacity to learn.
