In the Arts Entrepreneurship/Arts Management class Attracting Capital at SMU, this semester, students Tala Duwaji and Sam Lankford accomplished something remarkable. They played The Marble Game and began trading up in value from a marble. Three weeks, later, they had accumulated $5,400 cash.

Check out the audio link below, which is a radio interview with Jim Hart, Director of Arts Entrepreneurship at SMU. He describes this remarkable win, the proceeds of which were donated to All Stars Project of Dallas.

Also, check out this SMU The Daily Campus article about their win. In total, students from this class raised $5,645 cash and a total of $6,000 in value (through assets and cash).
