School Is So Important

A recent University of Minnesota Alumni Survey demonstrates the necessity of higher education in our society.

1) 14,801 have founded approximately 19,000 companies worldwide, employing 1.1 million people.
2) 6,812 have founded roughly 10,000 companies in Minnesota, employing half a million people.
3) 10 percent have earned national or international accolades
4) 78 percent do volunteer work, one in fourteen has served in elected office.
5) 37 percent have led charity organizations and 23 percent served boards of directors
6) 1,154 own patents, including eight who own more than 200 each.

The U of M is one great school and we have three generations in our family who have attended the Minneapolis campus and all three have a successful history of founding companies.
