1. Entrepreneurship centre (Research Park and EnterpriseWorks) is too far from campus and seems isolated. Hard for incoming freshman and even older students to know the opportunities. Make startups and corporate companies more accessible to students.
2. There are no startup weekends or hackathons in India for high school and college students. Initiate a startup conference, something I wish I had when I was in high school.
3. Why is there no crowdsourced app to tell me the approximate wait time in a line at chipotle, or whether there are any empty seats in a café?
4. Why aren't there more trash cans or recycling bins around campus?
5. The 'swipe' doors are not usable for people in wheelchairs. Maybe there is an opportunity to make a wireless authentication system that detects a user and opens the door.
6. There is no way for people with disabilities to get down an emergency staircase in case of a fire. That is definitely a problem that needs to be solved.
7. An opportunity exists in making people get out of bed to work out..There ahve to be beter ways to deal with snoozing your alarm clock.

9. Housing website is terrible and it is a pain to rent out the kitchen or even check for dining information.
10. Where do i dispose my old laptop and electronics?
11. There has to be an easy way to listen to lectures, prelectures or class information while walking to class or while on the bus.
12. A better note taking application than evernote or word. They are not simple enough to seem as invisible as writing on a peice of paper.
13. Can someone buy groceries in bulk from Sam's or Walmart and deliver them to me?
14. Ironically, compass2g is probably the worst website interface i've used in a long time. And as a programmer, I can safely say that it has a ton of bugs on the backend to database calls and such.
15. Something that gently refocuses me if I get distracted, or reminds me my priorities for the day.
16. If i can know the data behind how much water/electricity i use in the dorms and how it compares to resources in developing countries, I'm more likely to save these resources and use them sparingly.
17. Its a giant problem that there isn't a convenient way to find roommates to rent apartments with.
18. Centralized place so you can share your notes from class with other people.
19. If i need to ask a question about calculus and I'm at grainger, maybe there is someone who knows the answer and is willing to tutor/help me. An app oportunity defintely exists for that.
20. There is NO crowdsources cab service in urbana.
21. Car pooling is a big hassle. How can we reduce the barriers to car pooling?
22. I've tried to find a 'free' workout plan but have not found one thats simple yet compelling enough to follow. Maybe a wesbite devoted to that is neccessary.
23. Bike stands are awfully designed. Everything gets entangled and results in a gigantic mess.
24. Why aren't iphone screens more durable?
25. Location based app to make sure people dont lose their friend when they are innebriated.

28. Menu vs menu, item vs item, drink vs drink comparison of restaurants and cafés in urbana-champaign

30. A NOT to do app that tells you things to avoid today!!
