The Career Development Office and the John C. Whitehead ’43 Program in Entrepreneurial Studies sponsored an all-day conference on Fords and the Entrepreneurial Spirit.

The social practice exhibit will grapple with the intersections between competition, cooperation and community through a massive skee-ball tournament in the Gallery and a series of ambitious artist residencies and curricular interventions.
