group of students

Students in Jennifer Wheeler’s entrepreneurship class competed in the Junior Achievement Stock Market Challenge. More than 19 school and 400 students showed up at SEFCU Arena on the UAlbany campus for the 60-minute challenge.

Each team starts with a million dollars that they invest in a stock market simulation.  Each minute is equal to one day and at the end of the time the team that made the most money is the winner. BH-BL students won third place. Way to go, Spartans!
