Wesleyan University has been preparing students to become successful social entrepreneurs for generations, since before the term ‘social entrepreneurship’ even existed. Now, with the Patricelli Center, we are helping Wesleyan’s changemakers become even more effective by teaching practical skills, offering experiential and project-based learning, funding student initiatives, and leveraging alumni connections.
