Residents will have to opportunity to build a network of resources to help each accomplish their goal. Free business council, including legal and accounting services, will be available to members of the community. Students will enroll in a one credit hour independent study each semester to facilitate networking, business plan development, and idea formation. Juniors or seniors are ideal candidates but others will be considered. Cougar Enterprises is located in the newly built Cougar Village Building 529.
