Good morning!
I’ve been working on a series with current and former University of Michigan students who have taken Dr. Eric Fretz’s Entrepreneurial Creativity class. Fretz, as he’s known on campus, is somewhat of a celebrity in the community. Known for his wit, unusual teaching methods and challenging his students to “do epic s ,” several groups have gone on to establish fully-fledged businesses by the end of the semester.
Here are some team projects and companies I’ve featured so far.

ANN ARBOR – Atlanta native and University of Michigan junior Cam Turner has always felt something was missing on campus.
Growing up in the South, Waffle House is part of the culture, said Turner. He said he has fond memories of pouring into the modest breakfast joint with friends after football games or late nights. Open 24/7, Waffle House is also an affordable dining option for high school and college students.
