Abstract
First-hand experiences considering relevant research are used to examine the benefits and difficulties in implementing a studentmanaged investment fund through a repeatable one-hour lab format at a small regional state university. Implementing a student-managed fund in a lab format with fewer hours than a regular course reduces demands on faculty teaching load as well as on available hours in a student’s academic program. The multi-semester approach allows a stepwise progression of learning over multiple semesters, but its major difficulty is managing the mix of student skill levels.
