The students all participated in activities that revolved around personality traits. Early in the semester, all of the students took personality test to determine what category they would fall into. FLC members then created activities that all of the participants could partake in together.  FLC connected with middle school students to help learn about government and student involvement. All students worked to make placements together which were donated to Children's Hospital.
