Wessel, Stacy; Godshalk, Veronica M.
Journal of Higher Education Outreach and Engagement, v9 n1 p25-38 2004
This article focuses on providing a convincing argument for incorporating social entrepreneurship into the business professor's classroom. The outreach provided by social entrepreneurship enhances learning and promotes university-community relations. Service-learning engagement activities, in the form of social entrepreneurship, create a three-way partnership between the university, its community, and its students.
