3. List three questions for further exploration now that you've completed your summer hours.
What kind of College Education would be helpful for owning a theater?
How can a theater owner make their theaters special?
How expensive is it to start an operation like this?
4. What is the most important thing you gained from this experience? Why?
The reason I want to open a movie theater is because I love movies and I want to be surrounded by them, but Gregory Laemmle told me that owning a business like this is hard work and sometimes your so caught up that you stop seeing movies as much and you start to focus mainly on building your business rather than just watching a few movies with some loved ones.
5. What is your senior project topic going to be? How did mentorship help you make your decision? Please explain.
My senior topic is going to be Owning an Independent Movie Theater. I've know that this is what I wanted to do for a while now, even before I even started thinking about senior year. But I didn't really know what an owners does on a day to day basis so learning about that really solidified my decision.
