Chaminade to induct 7th entrepreneur class

Advertiser Staff

Chaminade University will induct its seventh class into its Hogan Entrepreneur Program on Wednesday.

The 30 students will be inducted in a ceremony from 10:30 a.m. to noon in the Mystical Rose Oratory at Chaminade University. Lt. Gov. Duke Aiona Jr. will be the keynote speaker.

Since its inception in 2002, the Hogan Entrepreneur Program has graduated 162 students, including the sixth graduating class of 28.

"Hogan students are nurtured to take on roles of leadership through this unique mentorship program," said Dr. John Webster, program director. "These energetic entrepreneurs and new student innovators undertake a series of courses with training and guidance from corporate and legislative leaders, civic and community service leaders, as well as successful business entrepreneurs who have started everything from restaurants to high-tech companies. Wisdom is shared and relationships are built in ways not normally acceptable to students."
