Amy,

Re: An Entrepreneurship Course should be mandatory in first grade through high school

I have seen these courses offered in colleges and always laugh when I see people lining up to "learn" how to think as an entrenpreneur. I believe(and have always believed) this cannot be taught, but is a progressive learning experience through failure. And absolutely nothing I have seen makes me think that this can somehow be taught.

What should be taught is humility, and that failure is a good thing if one learns from it. I remember seeing a piece on Intel several years ago where Grove was quoted as saying something to the effect that if we do not fail along the way we aren't really trying. THAT is what entrepreneurship is all about, not some text from a book.
