Launching a Business While Still In School

I disagree with the idea that a college student running a business while in school is taking away from his learning experience. I think that it adds to the experience if anything. The student/business owner is getting real life experience that he can bring into the classroom and develop more extensive questions that could help his other classmates as well. I think that there is really no better place to start your small business than when you have the ability to utilize and consult with numerous experts in the field for free!
