Extractions: April 2003 Entrepreneurship A few years ago it seemed start-up companies were everywhere, from dotcoms to microbrews to magazines. Everyone had an idea, and funding for new business models seemed limitless. Today, while the amount of VC capital poured into private entrepreneurial companies is $2 billion higher than it was in 1998, many entrepreneurs are working harder to achieve their dream of building businesses. In this climate, having the right skills for turning a business plan into a company is paramount. At the Smith School of Business, students are presented with a wealth of opportunities for learning to navigate the stages of a start-up. Smith students gain knowledge through entrepreneurship courses such as Technology Entrepreneurship, New Venture Finance, New Venture Creation, Venture Capital, Strategic Growth for Emerging Ventures, International Entrepreneurship, and Social Entrepreneurship, while speakers at the Smith School have included Todd Krasnow, Co-founder of Staples; Founder and CEO of Zoots, and Errol Unikel, Founder of Unicorn Partners. Students can also participate in Smith's business plan competition, the largest in the Greater Washington, D.C. Metropolitan Area, in which winners receive seed money for launching their new venture. Both the Entrepreneurship Club (eClub) and the New Markets Growth (NMG) Fund provide hands-on experience on opposite sides of start-up financing: developing the new online Smith Store as part of the eClub and managing venture capital through the NMG Fund. (See below for more information on the eClub and NMG Fund).

As we will see, three factors have been especially significant: The narrowing of the focus of classroom teachers and lecturers particularly as they deal with increased workloads and the national curriculum A growing belief in the need to attend to learning beyond the classroom if educational achievement is to rise and if people's orientation and skill base is to remain relevant to the economy (e.g. Bentley 1998; Leadbeater 2000). An aspect of this has been the growth in use of problematic notions such as lifelong learning A desire to ensure that school and college life is marked by reasonable behaviour and is attractive to potential students and their parents.

Home The Five Principles of College Acccess by Marisa Saunders Critical College Access by Tony Collatos UCLA researchers Marisa Saunders and Tony Collatos outline five principles that have proven effective in providing urban students a pathway to higher education. Go to Critical College Access: Collatos' Five Principles In many instances, these students felt that the school system did not help, but actually got in the way of their going to college. These students were not enrolled in the college-bound track when they entered high school, and some were not even expected to graduate from high school. Yet, 25 were accepted to four-year universities, 17 enrolled in four-year universities, and six enrolled in community colleges in the Fall of 2001. L abor experts agree that a college degree is critical for financial well being. Whereas 32% of White students in California move on to four-year universities, only 23% of African Americans and 12% of Latinos do so. A primary reason for these unequal rates of college-going is that many African American and Latino students attend high schools that lack the conditions necessary to support a college going culturesuch as quality teachers, adequate instructional materials, and a rigorous curriculum. (See Jeannie Oakes' article in the last issue of TCLA.) These conditions must be present for all students to have an opportunity for college success and financial well being. Clearly much work is needed to secure these conditions. But alongside this work, we need to examine how under-represented students (and their parents) can increase the chances of being successful within existing high schools. This column of
