00:00:13.82  >> I know we weren't supposed to meet again until next year, but as you know, there have been two major accidents recently involving students trying to cross National Avenue, and last month, one student was killed.
00:00:23.96  So the administration has asked us to suggest what might make the pedestrian crosswalk a little safer.
00:00:29.18  I know this wasn't on our initial list of priorities, but the administration views this as one of their top student issues.
00:00:34.94  So is it okay if we brainstorm some of the possibilities?
00:00:37.85  >> Sure.
00:00:38.12  >> Yeah.
00:00:38.91  >> Okay.
00:00:39.56  Let me review the rules for brainstorming.
00:00:41.64  First, everybody should feel free to throw out their ideas, no matter how crazy, and no one is allowed to criticize or evaluate any of the ideas.
00:00:49.73  We'll evaluate them at our next meeting.
00:00:51.60  Second, we need to come up with as many ideas as possible.
00:00:54.15  So quantity is our goal here, okay?
00:00:56.73  So I'll write down the ideas on the chart as you call them out.
00:01:00.65  >> Okay.
00:01:02.06  >> Okay.
00:01:02.35  I'm ready.
00:01:03.31  >> Put in a stoplight to stop the cars.
00:01:06.73  >> We could build a tunnel for students to cross the street.
00:01:09.34  >> Or an overpass.
00:01:10.75  Or better yet, give the students jet packs, like "The Jetsons."
00:01:13.12  [Laughter] >> We could build a wall to prevent crossing other than at the crosswalk.
00:01:18.26  >> Put speed bumps on the street to slow the traffic.
00:01:21.18  >> Close off the streets and build a pedestrian mall.
00:01:23.80  >> We could reduce the speed limits.
00:01:26.34  >> Eliminate students.
