Collegiate Entrepreneurs Organization -- uSphere speaks at their National Conference

Want to study entrepreneurship in college? Start, maybe, with a few of the schools who sent representatives to CEO -- Collegiate Entrepreneurs Organization -- and their annual conference, held this weekend in Chicago. (Which is home of the President-Elect. We need to throw that in.)

Here's a hypothesis: schools that send kids to this conference are likely to have entrepreneurship as part of the mix on campus.

So, a not-so-scientific listing of schools who represented:

Bradley. Great idea for their students to all wear red shirts.
Santa Clara University. In the Valley, so good location for startups.
TCU. Clever purple shirts that said "tcuceo" on them.
IIT. Illinois Institute of Technology. Got to give them props -- they were everywhere and they were the ones who got us on the dias. (Well, them AND GrubHub.)
Northern Kentucky. They actually exhibited, and their (garish) black-and-yellow shirts meant they stood out.

I've left a few more schools out, too, and invite you to comment if you were there...

BTW - Rather than bore you with the details of the uSphere speech at the CEO conference yesterday, here's a link to my notes.
