rich.First, we begin with an overview of the relationship between the individual and the community,including a review of the literature, focusing on the transition from personal characteristics ofentrepreneurs to the broader understanding of the entrepreneur in situ. Second, we propose anew way to think of the innovation cycle, based on the virtues of creativity, diligence, andwisdom, which are informed by other virtues, such as compassion, justice, and stewardship.Finally, we consider practical pedagogy and case studies (including experiences of our studentauthor) to teach entrepreneurship using the virtues, which may help faculty to move beyondsimple teaching of skills towards a positive influence to increase student entrepreneurialbehavior.2

The effectiveness of entrepreneurial education programs is difficult to measureprecisely, particularly in a shorter time, due to the nature of entrepreneurship education programoutcomes which researchers need to wait years before students graduate and then contribute tothe creation of innovation or new venture in their later carrier.

The initial offering of the business-based GSSEprogram did not include a formal means of interfacing GSSE students with capable andinterested engineering and agricultural science students at CSU. Rather, any such interfacesbetween GSEE teams and engineering/science students were achieved on an ad hoc basis andresulted in varying degrees of success. Accordingly, in 2009 a Course and Program Grant wasobtained from the National Collegiate Inventors and Innovators Alliance (NCIIA) to formalize alinkage between GSSE Masters students and graduate students within the College of Engineering(COE) and College of Agricultural Science (CAS), respectively.
