For a group of 24 Holy Cross students, the beginning of summer was all business.

Shortly after finals, the students were back on campus for four weeks, immersed in the lessons of running and launching a business, research and analysis, marketing and financial accounting.

Now in its fifth year, the Summer Business Program offers students studying in any major — from anthropology to theatre — the opportunity to learn about business and entrepreneurship directly from alumni who have experienced the benefits of a liberal arts education in their own successful careers.

Hear from students and alumni talk about the innovative program.
