Several students from Spelman College have helped their institution win a significant monetary prize through their dedication to enhancing their financial literacy.
The fourth annual Market Madness competition, organized by Goldman Sachs, concluded after a semester-long in-depth introduction to critical financial concepts and their practical applications for HBCU students.
Spelman won the competition for the third consecutive year, securing a $1 million grant.
The program’s objective is to educate students on topics such as investment in the capital markets, business development, and other areas that many Americans wish they had more exposure to at an earlier stage.
