History
In early 2008, a group of like-minded individuals at the University of Dayton saw the opportunity to design a unique coed fraternal organization built upon the ideals of entrepreneurship. These early Founders realized the great potential in building such a network as entrepreneurship is one of the fastest growing majors on college campuses and a strong trend among young professionals.
Later that year on April 18, 2008, Epsilon Nu Tau, the Nation’s First Entrepreneurship Fraternity was established. ENT is based upon a professional and entrepreneurial mindset, with fellowship and community as its backbone.
Epsilon Nu Tau has been in operation for more than three years and has most recently launched its Epsilon Chapter at Ohio University in Athens, OH.
Current plans include launching additional chapters during 2011, with more on the way for 2012. As the ENT network grows, members shall benefit from enhanced collaboration, connections, and brotherly love between chapters across the US and beyond.
Purpose
To create a society and community of entrepreneurially spirited individuals.
Learn how to operate micro-businesses, collaborate with like-minded creative students, and meet successful entrepreneurs. ENT is open to all diligent college students who would like to expand their business knowledge and integrate entrepreneurial activities and sales experience into their extracurricular activities. Any bright student, regardless of their major, has the potential to establish and operate a successful company!
To advance the ideals of professionalism & entrepreneurship.
Members strive for daily improvement and a constant increase in value; much like a high-growth business.
To promote the art and science of salesmanship.
On campus sales activities and practices are important to the development any student. Regardless of the industry or career you seek, one must “sell” them self daily. Whether it is a job interview, networking event, awards banquet, or even a hot date…confidence and first impressions are crucial.
To encourage ethical business practices within the community and contribute to the welfare of society.
Consumers and companies alike want to deal with ethical companies who provide them with the best quality products and services, with no hidden fees or schemes attached. Every handshake should be accompanied by a friendly, smiling face.
