Dario Guerrero ’21 Why I Chose Babson My path to Babson was quite funny. I actually applied to be an engineering major everywhere else and last minute decided to apply to Babson. What made me choose Babson in the end was ultimately because Babson chose me and made it evident that they wanted me there as much as I wanted to be there.

My Most Memorable Lesson I’ve learned so much in my time at Babson in and out of the classroom. But if I had to pick the most important thing I’ve learned so far, it would be the idea that failure is OK. The idea of failing was something so uncommon for me in high school. After being at Babson and being challenged, I’ve learned one of the most important life lessons: acknowledging that failure makes you normal and an even stronger person.

How Babson Activities Influence My Pursuits and Career Plans Being around a lot of diverse people on a day-to-day basis and working in some of the environments I’ve worked in at Babson made me truly become a student of the world. Inspired by my studies abroad, I’ve looked into concentrating in global business management. I hope with whatever I end up doing, I can change the world in some way, and in order to change the world you need to see it.

4 Preview Day Spring 2021

Alicia Gaudet ’22 Why I Chose Babson I chose Babson because I recognized how they offered their students endless possibilities and opportunities. I also noticed how unique Babson is in the way they choose to structure themselves. They give you entrepreneurial skills and a foundation in every aspect of business to prepare you in whatever industry you end up going into.

Additionally, the strong, global network/community that Babson offers while you are a student and alumni was something that I could not pass up.

How Have Student Organizations and Activities Impacted My Babson Experience Here at Babson I am a first-year resident assistant, tour guide, and part of the women’s rugby team. Joining rugby was probably the best decision I have made here at Babson so far. I have met such a diverse, inspiring, and supportive group of women who I now call my best friends. Additionally, being an RA and part of the Admissions office has given me an opportunity to tell my story about why I love Babson, as well as enhancing my personal leadership and communication skills.

How Babson Activities Influence My Pursuits and Career Plans The activities that I take part in out of the classroom are the reason why my experience here at Babson is so complete. The academics here are absolutely incredible, but through the extracurricular opportunities we have here, they give you a vast amount of opportunities to meet people with similar interests, improve your professional skills, and focus on your own personal goals.

Ryan Laverty ’20 Why I Chose Babson Ever since I was young, I was always fascinated by entrepreneurship. In middle school, I remember buying and selling cameras, toys, etc., on eBay. When I was in high school, I would import things through Alibaba and sell them online.

When it came time to look for a school, the idea of a school where students running companies wasn’t just allowed, but encouraged, had my attention.

How Babson Has Impacted My Career Development I served on the board of advisors and was a resident of eTower, where I served as president for 2018. This was incredibly formative to my business expertise and taught me how to build amazing communities and teams of people. I learned how to be calm under pressure, make good decisions, lead well, and above all else invest time in people first.

What are your professional goals?

My immediate professional goals are to run my own startup and build a great team. One day, I’d love to run my own incubator or accelerator to help up-andcoming entrepreneurs. My time running eTower taught me a lot about how to best support new founders, and I find most founders face the same problems.

This is why it’s crucial to have communities for support, and I would love to build one of those communities.

6 Preview Day Spring 2021

Noelia Chacon ’23 Why I Chose Babson I chose Babson because I wanted a small school with big school resources.

I wanted to be at a school where I could leave an imprint and be actively involved and Babson supports you and gives you all the resources to do so.

My Most Memorable Lesson Something I have taken away with me is Entrepreneurial Thought & Action.

This is a mindset that can be applied to any part of your life. I think of a vision and apply predictive logic or creative logic and apply it to my situation. That is something that I will take away with me forever.

How Babson Activities Influence My Pursuits and Career Plans Since I am in a professional fraternity I am always thinking about my career path and connecting with people who are older to guide me in their footsteps.

I am also able to hear from a wide range of perspectives to learn about other industries and it is nice to have a community of people to give you advice.

Foundations of Management and Entrepreneurship (FME) Communicate, lead, work in a team, manage obstacles, and see a plan through to completion. Become an entrepreneurial leader, with guidance from two professors who are there in the classroom with you, offering deep expertise in the fields of entrepreneurship and management.

FME—your jumping-off point for a Babson education!

“ I’ve learned so much about the behind-the-scenes work that goes into a venture of this kind, including how to maximize the efforts of a 14-person team and manage the inevitable interpersonal conflicts.”

– ARELIS AGOSTO ’18 CEO, Toasty buns

How It Works Throughout the year, two dedicated faculty members—industry professionals—teach you the ins and outs of entrepreneurship, marketing, organizational behavior, and operations, while emphasizing the integrated role these functions have in an organization.

Classes of up to 40 students break into teams to use the concepts and tools of Entrepreneurial Thought & Action®, the method of turning ideas into action, to explore a creative opportunity that solves a problem and creates value. Once you determine your idea is feasible, you’ll create a launch plan and must qualify for a loan of up to $3,000 from the College as startup money for your business.

100%

of profits are donated to the team’s service organization.

Since 1999, FME businesses have donated more than $538,000 to local service organizations.

BIG FME BUSINESS EXAMPLES BEANTOWN BLANKETS Fleece throw blankets with a waterproof material on the back. For every blanket sold, a blanket is donated to a local homeless shelter.

BIZBUDDIES A self-published children’s book that illustrates Entrepreneurial Thought & Action® in an engaging way.

MINI FAIR FRIDAYS A social venture that brings local businesses and startups to campus to share their products with the Babson community and expose students to new shopping experiences.

SCRIBBLE SURFACE A wet erase sticker that is placed on the exterior of your laptop to serve as a miniwhite board.

START-UP! A card game based on the concept of entrepreneurship and assessing risk.

“ FME is one of the things that truly separates the Babson learning experience from the rest. Most schools rely on textbooks and case studies, while the FME experience puts theory into practice, exposing you to many aspects of business you can’t learn in a classroom such as team dynamics and real-time decision making. When it comes to entrepreneurship, there is nothing more valuable than real world experience and FME delivers Babson students with exactly that.”

– Dave Heath ’05, Co-Founder and CEO, Bombas

Forming Partnerships Teams establish a partnership with a local social services agency, emphasizing the importance of corporate social responsibility. Collectively, each team donates 80 hours of community service, plus profits from their business, to that organization. Students have supported a variety of organizations, including Special Olympics, Habitat for Humanity, Cradles to Crayons, Boys and Girls Club, and the Greater Boston Food Bank. And, since 1999, FME businesses have donated more than $538,000 to local charities.

The only question is: How much will your team contribute?

What You’ll Gain The experience is more than just learning how to launch a startup.

It’s about exploring career options. It’s about identifying and creating opportunities, understanding your goals, developing the mindset of an entrepreneurial leader, managing team dynamics, and communicating effectively. Above all, it’s about turning ideas into action.

These skills are essential to your personal and professional development, and you’ll constantly use them throughout your four years—and throughout your future career.
