Camp $tart-Up
Via a friend at the Johnson School at Cornell…
Do you wonder why there are not more women in business school and in business professions? Please help us spread the word about Camp $tart-Up.
Camp $tart-Up
- Teaches young women 13-19 about business skills and professions in business in a week-long summer program
- Differentiates the Johnson School: the only top business school reaching out to women at a younger age, to increase the number of female business school applicants
- Provides an opportunity for sponsors and donors to differentiate themselves from their competitors in the eyes of young women, future leaders, other sponsors and donors and both the Cornell and Johnson School communities

Sounds like a great program — cool to see you soooo busy with tech! Funny how I found you looking up a little code written by a guy in AMS who happens to read a guy in UK who happens to thank a wonderful gal in the US! Go Grrl Go!
Hope all’s well! Cheers! Janine
