Thank you very much to Marc Talluto ’94 and Tom Carlson ’94 for speaking to students in IWU’s entrepreneurship classes as part of the Design, Technology, and Entrepreneurship (DTE) program on March 5th!  Marc and Tom shared their substantial entrepreneurial knowledge with students interested in starting their own business one day.  Students enjoyed hearing from Marc and Tom and shared the following thoughts with them in personal thank you letters written to the alums:

“I enjoyed the real life examples that you shared with us because it really helped me visually understand the material that you were explaining.  I really enjoyed the speech you gave to my class because as a graduating senior, I am trying to soak up as much information as I can before I leave IWU.”  Logan Alexander, senior DTE major

“I am a senior biochemistry student who is entering medical school in August. I am in this class to learn about entrepreneurship and business so that after medical school I will have some of the skills and knowledge to start or help run a clinic.  I would like to say thank you and that your real-world experience and stories enhanced my understanding in an invaluable way. Your success in starting a business definitely was preceded by many challenges. Hearing about these challenges will hopefully help me in my future endeavors.”  Ross Burandt, senior Biochemistry major
