The Hillsdale College Investment Club (HCIC) was established in Sept. 2014 under the direction of a small group of students. Our club is run by undergraduates, supervised by faculty advisers, and currently manages a $100,000 portion of the Hillsdale Endowment. ​ For those interested in the financial industry, our club unites students of all majors to pursue real-life experience unattainable within the classroom. We meet weekly to discuss market analysis and listen to stock and ETF presentations, wherein club analysts pitch potential holdings within our portfolio. Club members are then given the opportunity to vote on each presentation before executing a trade. ​ The Hillsdale College Investment Club offers qualified and motivated students the ability to gain authentic experience in the capital markets, as well as the opportunity to interact and work with like-minded students

Ed and Darlene Lowe established the Edward Lowe Foundation in 1985 to leverage entrepreneurship as a strategy for economic growth and community development. In contrast to most U.S. foundations, which are grant-giving entities, we are an operating foundation that funds its own programs. Our entrepreneurship initiatives are focused on second-stage companies — growth-oriented firms that have moved beyond startup but haven’t yet reached maturity. Our peer learning, leadership education and strategic information programs are geared to help these companies continue growing. We also educate communities about the unique challenges second-stagers face, how to work with them — and how to develop the kind of culture they need to flourish. To scale our impact, the foundation delivers its programs to second-stagers through other entrepreneur support organizations, which includes chambers of commerce, small business development centers, technology councils and economic development agencies. Although many programs are conducted on our partners’ turf, such as PeerSpectives CEO roundtables and Economic Gardening, we host leader retreats and facilitator training at Big Rock Valley (BRV), our headquarters in southwest Michigan. BRV is also integral in our land stewardship initiatives. A 2,000-acre property comprised of woodlands, wetlands and prairies, BRV’s diverse habitats support a wide variety of species, many of which are endangered or threatened. To preserve BRV’s environmental integrity, the foundation employs a number of innovative land management practices. In addition, we allow researchers to use the property for studies that can expand the knowledge base of conservation science.
