Stories the campus produces
The thesis
Many entrepreneurs are creators. Many creators are entrepreneurs.
Art and culture earn a place on the campus by serving every other vertical — and by being a tenant in their own right. Residencies sit alongside athletes, chefs, rangers and founders. Output: original work, plus a constant stream of content that tells the campus's story to the world.
This vertical is currently toggleable. Internal teams can switch the offer between four-vertical and five-vertical at /admin/toggles.
