"Summer Business Institute changed the way I look at the world and my future. I still have the same goals and aspirations as I did before the course, but I can now see them in a more practical way. The world is a business. I know how to calculate the percentages for my future and hold myself steady to achieve my goals. The program was made up of more than lessons in business; the people (both staff and student) are what made SBI one of the best ways to spend part of my summer while helping me plan for the rest of my life."

"SBI was a great resource for me. Since I was rushing to complete my major this past year, I ran out of room for classes that I wanted to take to help me out later in life, such as business classes. Fortunately though, I was able to participate in SBI. It gave a great background in all fields of business, and I came out of the program with a general understanding of everything I needed to know. Thanks to SBI, I am confident enough in my business knowledge to participate in the business world, and I have met many people from the Daniel's College that will be great resources for me to know. Also, the Nature Place was awesome! Don't miss it!
To sum this all up, if you want to learn more about business, but don't have the time or the interest to sit through business classes, join SBI next summer!"

"The quickest, yet most informative crash course on all things business. I have met critical people, both classmates and professionals, that will be and already have been valuable resources for helping me zero in on and enter the career field of my choice."
