*Description: Bucknell University has a well-established history as an acclaimed liberal arts and engineering university. Although the is a school of management, it does not have the support or opportunities for the students within that discipline to thrive as muh as other majors. Additionally, students that may have a diverse educational interest do not have many opportunities to strive for their interests. An entrepreneurship minor would be a very long, on-going project to complete, but would aid and encourage many students to seek a business and mangement related education to complement their main major.

 *Description: First-year students, fresh minds that do not know anything about the school and have not yet been molded by the structure of their university, are the perfect candidates for an entrepreneurship program. Pre-orientation is a 5 day excursion for first-year students where they participate in a workshop prior to their first day of college. A pre-orientation activity surrounded around the concept of entrpreneurship would promote business education and create an opportunity for first-year students to gain access and exposure to the entrpreneurship possibilities on campus. Upper-classmen students would run this 5 day workshop while faculty of the school of management and other departments would facilitate the activities. A "Shark Tank" or "Biz Pitch" related activity could be devised where students pair together and create a product/concept, organize a business plan, then pitch their idea to a small board of faculty and students. These ideas can then be carried into their school year and possibily be made into realities.
