How Drexel and Saxbys Partnered to Boost Experiential Learning

EAB’s Paul Gunther hosts a conversation with Drexel University President John Fry and Saxbys founder and CEO Nick Bayer about the Saxbys Experiential Learning Platform–-a network of cafés entirely designed for and run by college students. The cafés provide undergraduates with real-world experience and tangible lessons in entrepreneurship that complement their classroom learning. Though still in its infancy, the project has employed 500 students and paid almost $2M in salaries to date, all while enabling students to acquire valuable job skills and course credits.
