At OWU, Brooker plans to major in Finance Economics and minor in Accounting.
Beginning in the fall, Brooker and the other Latham Scholars will take special classes, receive funds to support an internship, and develop their own entrepreneurial venture as they prepare themselves to become the next generation of business trailblazers.
In their first semester of the program, the Latham Entrepreneurial Scholars learn about the entrepreneurial mindset by attending a special seminar, interacting with an online learning module, and meeting with various multiple entrepreneurs. The online learning covers the basics of a business startup while focusing on their own business idea.

Crain s editorial: Voices of experience
Print
We love our jobs here at Crain s Cleveland Business. Small confession, though: Certain tasks on the editorial side of the operation are more enjoyable, and more satisfying, than others.
Among those is a project we ve tackled each year since 2016: Eight over 80, featuring profiles of Northeast Ohioans who have lived to that landmark age and have shaped and continue to shape our civic, cultural, philanthropic and business landscape.
Make sure to read the stories of the eight for 2021, starting on Page 10. You ll find details of remarkable journeys, considerable knowledge and valuable perspective, about business and life. Take a look, too, at our website, CrainsCleveland.com, to revisit the people who were featured from 2016 to 2020. Some are famous names in Northeast Ohio. Others are of a lower profile, but have made no less of an impact on this region. They aren t all still with us. But all their voices of experience linger.
