Excerpt from School to Work Programs; An Opportunity for Oregon to Lead Again: Hearing Before the Subcommittee on Regulation, Business Opportunities, and Technology of the Committee on Small Business, House of Representatives, One Hundred Third Congress, Second Session
We have employees of our company who work for that class and it's great fun for everybody. The students get a chance to start a cellular business. Some of them are the general manager and some of them are the director of public affairs and some of them are the chief engineer, and they really gain an appreciation for what's in volved in starting a business as well as learning about this busi ness in the process.
They come up with some great ideas on things that we could, maybe should have done. So, I think we as a company also gain from hearing some of their startup ideas as they then make their final presentations at the end of the 9 weeks.
