Park University's Students in Free Enterprise (SIFE) team recently received the "Rookie of the Year" award and placed second runner up in their league at the SIFE USA Regional Competition on Mar. 7 in St. Louis, Mo.

The event is one of 21 SIFE USA Regional Competitions that are held across the United States in April. The projects are judged on creativity, innovation, and effectiveness.

During this academic year, the Park University SIFE Team also organized five projects in the Parkville community, including the first Ethics Essay Contest that taught Park Hill and Park Hill South High School DECA students about ethics through in-depth conversations, case studies and an essay.

SIFE is an international non-profit organization active at more than 1,800 university campuses in more than 40 countries. SIFE teams create economic opportunities in their communities by organizing outreach projects that teach market economics, entrepreneurship, personal financial success skills and business ethics.
