  • The Power of College Side Hustles, Feat. Our Co-Founder Lindsay
    Mar 20 2025

    🎙️ Episode Description:

    This episode will be about the evolving trend of side hustles among the younger generations– starting with 53% of Gen Z currently operating one, and a projected increase to 69% among Gen Alpha (age 1-14 years old). This puts university entrepreneurship centers in a prime position to jump on board this trend and support a HUGE number of student creatives on campus looking to scale something they’ve started. And, if you’re among these young, side-hustling generations– you're in for plenty of inspiration out of this episode. If you are listening to this on a College campus where student made is NOT present, then we would love to work with you to launch our program and help dozens of student creative student founders turn their passions into something much greater.

  • Finding My Canvas on Custom Shoes, Feat. Marquette's Tessa Hollander
    Mar 13 2025

    🎙️ Episode Description:

    Today we’re going to hear from Marquette University sophomore, Tessa Hollander, founder of a super unique brand called Tailor Made by Tessa, which will give you a custom painting on an unexpected canvas. Tessa got started on this founder journey at a really young age, and had a really special support system around her that encouraged her to pursue this talent of hers. You’ll hear about how she came to work with shoes as her main canvas of choice, as well as a major opportunity to showcase her work at New York Fashion Week while still in high school– and how that trip, while understandably terrifying for a young high schooler, has propelled her brand to where it is today.

  • Getting My Designs in Free People: The Success Story of a Student-Made UNC Alum, Feat. Delilah Eby
    Feb 25 2025

    🎙️ Episode Description:

    Today we have a bit of a bonus episode, outside the norm of our usual episodes we share with you every week. We have a Student-Made ALUM, Delilah Eby, a graduate of UNC Chapel Hill! Delilah joined Student-Made in her later years of college, back around 2022, and took away some very valuable experiences that have helped her go on and do amazing things with her creative business, Delilah Designs. A couple notable successes? One of her designs recently landed her a deal with the retail brand, Free People. And, she appeared just a couple weeks back in Teen Vogue– SO cool to see all that she’s doing just a few years after graduating.
