Since the universal domination of Facebook founder Mark E. Zuckerberg, originally of the class of 2006, Harvard has seen a surge in undergraduate entrepreneurs. While Harvard entrepreneurs admit that having “CEO” or “founder” written on your resume can’t hurt when applying to business school or Morgan Stanley, most of these go-getters insist that only sincere passion pushed them into the cold world of business at such a tender...

...than it is a triumph of the human ego. This is all right with me - I don't think anything worthwhile is created without egotism pushing the effort along and it is good to see it functioning in such extreme circumstances.
