MSU students soon will have the opportunity to witness an educational event aiming to erase the stigma associated with failure. ASMSU, MSU’s undergraduate student government, has allocated $25,000 from its Special Projects fund to host Failure:Lab, a storytelling event that allows spectators to listen in on strangers’ stories of failure. The student government hopes to be able to recover their investment in this event through ticket sales. Failure:Lab, which previously has performed shows in Grand Rapids and Detroit, invites well-known, successful people to share intimate stories of personal failure in their lives. The storytellers are not allowed to explain how their failure helped them later achieve their goals, but must instead focus on how failure is a normal component in reaching success. Jonathan Williams, co-founder of Failure:Lab, has been brainstorming ideas of bringing notable alumni into the event as a way to localize the event to a campus environment. The event is meant to reduce the fear many people have of taking a risk and falling short, Williams said. “Failure:Lab is an honest conversation about the struggles behind success,” Williams said.
