We can promote social entrepreneurship on campus by educating students on the topic of social entrepreneurship. People are knowledgeable about entrepreneurship, but not many people are aware of social entrepreneurship. Social entrepreneurship grants students the opportunity to create solutions tackling social issues/topics for profit. There are business owners on campus who are interested in activism. Raising awareness about social entrepreneurship to those students could promote social entrepreneurship on campus.

An Entrepreneurial Mindset enhances a student's education by teaching them perseverance, creativity, problem solving and collaboration so that they can identify problems and find solutions. And coming to Social Entrepreneurship, although it might refer to for-profit company, the core belief is to solving issues in the society while generating profits. Social Entrepreneurship is very much essential in today's world as it provides accept to employment, food and various other services to those who are in need. It fosters a more equitable society by addressing the social issues and trying to achieve ongoing sustainable impact through their social mission rather than purely profit-maximization. I personally liked the objectives of the startup companies like "Thread and SEEDS". SO getting habituated to the social entrepreneur mindset should start in the age of schooling itself. Schools should take extra care on this by linking their curriculum to the real world business challenges, creating opportunities for students to participate in Social Entrepreneur contests. A great way to encourage students to become social entrepreneurs is by actually showing them what kind of impact they would have. This helps students in creating a strong entrepreneur mindset.
