ben-riddleFurman junior Ben Riddle is involved in the University Innovation Fellows, a group of students intent on generating more entrepreneurial activity and collaboration across their campuses. Supported by Epicenter, a national hub for entrepreneurship and engineering education funded by the National Science Foundation and headquartered at Stanford University, the program has more than tripled in the past year to 168 students at 85 campuses. In a recent blog post, the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy praised the University Innovation Fellows program while celebrating National Entrepreneurship Month. Riddle, who is from Greenville, is creating an Individualized Curriculum Program (ICP) in Social Entrepreneurship with a minor in Poverty Studies.
