WALTHAM, MA--(Marketwire - September 26, 2007) - Hart-Boillot, L.L.C., a business-to-business
advertising and public relations agency, announced its collaboration with
Middlebury College to create an intensive program in creativity,
organization, risk and entrepreneurship.
Midd CORE will be an intensive four-week immersion program taking place
during the Middlebury College Winter (January) Term. It is designed for
students who are curious about business, social organizations and
entrepreneurship, but are not necessarily economics majors likely to work
in business-related settings after graduation.
"We want students to feel that they can study the subjects that they care
about most while still learning skills that will be essential to
post-graduate employment, no matter what career path they choose," said
Michael Claudon, PhD, Economics Professor and founder of the Midd CORE
Program. "CORE will enable students to gain critical foundation knowledge
in an intense, fun, team-oriented and collaborative atmosphere."
"It's the kind of experience that would have helped me immensely in
starting my own entrepreneurial career," said Nicolas Boillot, managing
partner, Hart-Boillot. "I could have avoided many mistakes if I had
participated in this kind of program. In my mind, Midd CORE will most
significantly impact students who do not major in economics, be they
geologists, actors or activists."
Midd CORE is in line with Middlebury's recently-announced multi-year
Initiative to Support Creativity and Innovation in the Liberal Arts. Midd
CORE will be taught collaboratively through experiential-based tutorials,
case study sessions, individual classes and seminars. Participating
students will learn about building and sustaining organizations and taking
and managing risk in collaborative, team-based sessions led by experienced
professionals. A flow of guest professionals from the for-profit and
non-profit sectors will enhance the regular classroom curriculum.
In addition to Nicolas Boillot's time spent working with the founding team
of Midd CORE, Hart-Boillot will support the program with an undisclosed
donation.
