A Wake Forest University graduate business student has been invited to speak at a U.S. Education Department symposium in Washington on Aug. 18.
Chris Yuko will be part of a panel that will discuss "The Impact of Character Education on Students Enrolled in Institutions of Higher Education."
Yuko is the co-founder and program director of Project Nicaragua, which is being conducted by students at the university's Babcock Graduate School of Management. The students have either conducted a two-day educational seminar or helped at a vocational school as part of offering their knowledge to Third World entrepreneurs and small-business owners. The project also aims to develop socially responsible business leaders.
Another group of five students and three faculty members made a similar presentation earlier this summer in Benin in western Africa.
