The class capacity is set at 156 students, and 65 spots are filled.
"For the first time a student from any school can learn how to start and successfully manage his or her own business." Meyer said.
The University is also working to create the option of an entrepreneurship concentration for business majors and a minor for non-business students. Meyer said the increase in University students' interest was mirrored nationwide.
"We've seen two trends: more and younger managers are starting their own business and many more students are getting entrepreneurship education in order to increase the odds of success in starting their own business." Meyer said.
Bass, an economics major, will graduate after the summer session. He plans to use the rest of his time at the University as a trial run for his business. If he does not find success, he may pursue a career in real estate. Many entrepreneurs do find success, Meyer said. But he added that students who went through the program would improve their odds.
"It's made a lot more achievable if you know the right way to do it, like most things." Meyer said.

and aren't inclined to negotiate condom use or talk about sexual histories, Mansfield said.

"College students tend to think they are bullet proof," Mansfield said. "I find that's especially true with students I meet at KU. They aren't promiscuous and may use condoms the first half a dozen times, but then they stop because they feel comfortable with their partner. When people don't know the sex histories of their partners, they are putting themselves at risk."
Mansfield said his organization was particularly helpful for KU students because it offered free confidential HIV testing. Watkins Memorial Health Center offers confidential testing also, but it costs $20.
Reid said this was the first time in a while her group had made a significant push to raise awareness of the issue. Everyone thinks they've heard enough about HIV/AIDS, but they mistake that for knowing everything, she said.
"There is still a lot that needs to be done on educating people and changing government policy." Reid said. "Somebody's got to step up and start screaming about it."

Space relic restored
HUTCHINSON — Former astronaut James Lovell Jr. peered deep inside the Gemini 12 capsule that he flew in November 1966 during the first space mission in which two spaceships docked.
"All the spots on my seat are still there," Lovell said Wednesday.
The last time he saw the capsule was 20 years ago when it still was enclosed in a Plexiglas shell and on display at the NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center in Maryland.
Pointing to one seat, he told onlookers that was where Edwin "Buzz" Aldrin sat. Lovell sat in the other one.
But that shell was partially removed recently at the Kansas Cosmosphere and Space Center, where preservation work soon will begin before it goes on display at the Alder Planetarium in Chicago.
"It looks pretty good," Lovell said as he inspected the capsule. "It smells the same."
Lovell and officials from the Alder Planetarium were at the Cosmosphere to meet with restoration experts to go over details of the restoration work. Lovell wanted to make sure it is brought back to its post-flight appearance.
"We don't want it to look like a new nickel." Lovell said. "It takes away from the real artifact."
Lovell lobbied to get the
Gemini 12 spacecraft to Alder, which he called a "natural place for an artifact like this." He also has given the planetarium the handbook used to save the crew's lives during the near-fatal Apollo 13 mission.
Lovell — who uttered the now-famous words, "Houston, we have a problem" after the explosion aboard the Apollo 13 mission — also covetously eyed the Apollo 13 spacecraft now on display at the Cosmosphere, commenting how good that exhibit would look at Alder.

But Cosmosphere President Jeff Ollenburger wasn't about to give that bit of space history up: "I think it looks perfect where it is," he told him.
"Can I Have It Like That?"
