Startup 101 and Summer Plans

(here’s the rest of the photos from Startup 101) Today was the last day of Startup 101, a business seminar about starting your own business. I thought this day was more interesting than the last one because rather than just a general summary of starting up, it focused on financing and marketing (speaker was Mike [...]

Business Startup Seminar

I went to the first meeting of my Business Startup Seminar today. Didn’t really learn anything new (I guess that’s why it’s called “Business Startup 101″) but I did get to meet a really cool entrepreneur and professor from A&M. He’s working on some pharmaceutical startup and a social networking one. Hopefully he’ll be able [...]

Bob Gfelder, Senior VP of Lowe's

It was a pretty cool simulation where you trade LNG (liquid natural gas) based on a stream of fake news that updates every couple of seconds. Most of my photos recently have been from the business school. Since I work here as a [...]

Retailing Career Fair

Yesterday we had the Retailing Career Fair here at the business school and I was the designated photographer. The lighting wasn’t that great so I got a lot of really dark or blurry images, but a few did come out pretty well (like the one above). More shots from this event can be found on [...]

KANM – Student Radio

My friend Matt has a radio show called The Rock Bottom, and I sat in on it today. It was a lot of fun, but the whole time I was just thinking about how it could be done better (not really the radio show but everything else). The only ways to listen to it are [...]
