Tapping into the companies and organizations around campus will not only build Menlo’s professional reputation but also create a larger sense of community for students and Menlo Park/Atherton residents. Besides trying to engage the students in more off campus activities, we also want to enable the chance for students to experience more of Silicon Valley’s resources right here on campus. Menlo College’s current trend to a more entrepreneurial mindset can be reflected by giving room for students and alumni to share their entrepreneurial success stories. By offering both opportunities students will have their pick of community engagement, whether that be directly on campus or off.</span></span></span>
== '''Strategy #2: Creating a more real-life hands-on experience for students focused on Finance and Entrepreneurship ''' ==
<span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><span id="docs-internal-guid-36af8d9a-7fff-111e-a6e4-3609454288de" style="caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"><span style="font-size: 11pt; background-color: transparent; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-position: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Hands-on experiences are highly valued by employers all around the world. Menlo College has the opportunity to offer a lot more opportunities as such by creating a Bloomberg trading center, where students learn to know the software and the actual day to day use. A potential student-led investment fund and can use this hands-on experience in the future for employment or their own individual venture, after the trading lab has come to fruition. Menlo College will benefit from more specialized classrooms and the increased intimate learning environments.</span></span></span>
