May 11 2011: Jr. Business School sees the Tenth Island Project as a fantastic opportunity for students to explore what it means to have sustainable economic growth. Some questions to propose to stimulate conversation would be: 1. What is needed to kick start entrepreneurialism? How do we minimize greed and monopoly in a growing free market economy? How do we improve the standard of living of individuals without losing their inherent culture and family ties? Can we expand a business without using debt? What are the basics of wealth accumulation and financial literacy? I could go on. To be brief, the Tenth Island Project provides a fertile backdrop for students to participate in a conversation which includes financial literacy on a multicultural basis...this is going to be fun!
