The Challenge
Students will work on a special project for Prudential Center called "Record High." They will develop proposals for compelling digital education content targeting high school and college-age individuals interested in pursuing careers in music and entertainment including online presentations, learning modules, and a "tentpole" interview program. Proposals will include recommendations for sponsorship, faculty, and implementation.
