BAKER HOUSE ENTREPRENEURS · CORNELL
Join the founding board.
Baker House Entrepreneurs is a student organization for Cornell students who want to participate in the creation and execution of Baker House; a private club and think tank on Cornell’s campus.
THE FOUNDING GROUP · FALL 2026
Help build Baker House
from the inside
We’re looking for 20+ students to form the founding group. Advised by Professor Nate Cook, eLab instructor and practicing entrepreneur in Ithaca, the organization will foster growth and development of the entrepreneurial spirit.
The mission is to be involved in creating and executing Baker House. That means learning how businesses actually get built, financed, and run, hearing from founders who’ve done it, and helping each other make progress on real ideas.
- Why a board. Cornell lets sophomores live off campus only in housing tied to a registered student organization. Baker House Entrepreneurs needs a founding board of ten Cornell students to be officially recognized, which is what allows Baker House to house sophomores.
- Who we need. Sophomores and juniors especially. Three founding members will live at Westbourne, the Baker House property pictured above. Tick the box below if that could be you.
- Who can join. Participants are to be Baker House club members or resident members.
