Editor's Notes

  • #2 The Entrepreneurs Club mantra is to live your passion. What does that mean? Well, to start, we have to talk about entrepreneurship. To many, entrepreneurship is a big, hairy, convoluted concept. But it’s not and it’s found everywhere. It’s simple really: it’s about figuring out what you love doing and making it happen. If you’d like learn more and you want to meet others pursuing their dreams, join us tonight at 7pm in 150 Dodge. We’ll be viewing TED talks and discussing how entrepreneurship applies to all aspects of life.
  • #11 These are quotes by Chuck Klosterman. Chuck is a writer, critic and philosopher of all things pop culture. He’s extremely pithy, insightful, sarcastic, funny and engaging. Quite frankly, he’s my type of writer.This is part of a set of 23 questions he asks to new acquaintances. (1, 17, 19)
  • #14 Humane Society or the husbandry farmer?Life is full of contradictions and it’s full of insight.Why are we ok with taking things at face value? Adhering to the dogma’s we are taught in religion, school or the government? Living life with the ways of old? Entrepreneurship is the same way. Everyone goes one way, until you realize one day that way is wrong. What do you do?
