. entrepreneurial mindset (e.g., Fry,2011; Kriewall and Mekemson, 2010; Condoor and McQuilling, 2009; Bilan et al., 2005).Finally, educators are thrusting experiential exercises into the curriculum, i.e. methods teaching(Cadotte, 2014; Greene and Neck, 2011). From our perspective, this mixed modality approachoffers students a dynamic learning environment and an equally exciting opportunity for facultymembers to conduct research related to student experiences and behaviors.In this dynamic classroom setting, which includes historical context, reflection on one’s mindset,process learning, and methods teaching, we developed a relevant research question, which is thebasis for this paper: Does an entrepreneurial mindset assessment predict a student’s behavior

staff.BackgroundAccording to the United States Census Bureau in 2010 there were ~56.7 million people withsome form of disability, or ~19% of the American population.1 However the term ‘disabled’ canbe difficult to understand, as the severity of the disability is not always clear. It could mean thatsomeone had a partial hearing impairment or that someone had a severe motor pathology likecerebral palsy. The 2010 report Americans With Disabilities1 gave insight into the rates ofemployment for those with disabilities and those without. From this it becomes clear how hard itis for those to with disabilities to find employment and support themselves. However supportstructures and employment opportunities do exist For example the AbilityOne program employs45,000 people
