Front Exterior: The Austin Entrepreneurship Program (AEP) at Weatherford Hall is where Oregon State University students with entrepreneurial interests live, dine, learn, work and dream together in an incubator community. This residential college community cultivates creativity, camaraderie, and the fresh ideas that spin off to become the bright new enterprises of tomorrow. The AEP is named for Ken, ’53, and Joan Austin, co-founders of A-dec and members of the College of Business Hall of Fame.
