The Southwestern Company Corporate Blog

Each year the Southwestern Company acknowledges the Top 25 campuses in the world by total money that students earned for each campus. The schools on this list represent the hard work and dedication of the students who attend these colleges and universities. The dollar amount you see beside the school name represents the gross profit the students from that campus generated from running their own businesses in the summer of 2008. The Top 25 Campuses are announced annually in early January at the Southwestern Freddies (Awards Banquet).

Campuses number 11-25 receive a certificate noting their students’ success. Campuses number 1-10 receive an engraved plaque and are eligible to receive $1,000 for the career center.
