Chapter Makes Its Mark at UA’s McGuire Center

Three Beta Phi Sigs will graduate from the McGuire Center for Entrepreneurship in May, and three more have been accepted into the prestigious program at the Eller College at the University of Arizona.

Graduating will be Benjamin Eastman of Mequon, Wis; Josh Constanti of Lexington, Mass; and Kyle Roche of Fort Collins, Colo., while gaining admission were Dane Denby of Springfield, Ill.; Jordan Hongo of West Linn, Ore.; and Camron Vizcaino of Chino Hills, Calif.

The entrepreneurship program was established in 1984. One of the first university-based centers for entrepreneurship, the center is one of the few to consistently maintain top-tier national ranking. Rankings and awards include No. 2 in public undergraduate and No. 1 in public graduate nationally by Entrepreneur / Princeton Review; No. 6 globally by Financial Times; No. 4 among public undergraduate programs and No. 6 among public graduate
programs by U.S. News and World Report; National Model Program by United States Association for Small Business and Entrepreneurship; and NASDAQ Center for Entrepreneurial Excellence.

The program is open to graduate and undergraduate students from across the university, a variety of elective and stand alone courses, robust research agenda, and a rich community service mandate, said managing director Sherry Hoskinson. The Center is committed to enabling and advancing entrepreneurial goals of all university populations, and to advancing the understanding of the influence and role of entrepreneurship in both the business and academic communities, she said.
