Anthony O’Thomas: ‘Student should use their time at university and not wait till they graduate’

by Nick Petrie

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B8Mhun0NTxo&feature=channel_video_title

Entrepreneur Anthony O’Thomas talks to Wannabe Hacks about the opportunity that can be found during university and the potential it offers to create value outside your academic studies.

Anthony goes on to mention Emerging Students, a brand he created with three friends after graduating in June, and how he hopes it will become a platform for other students to give people a better chance of doing what they are passionate about.

This was filmed on a HTC Desire at Kingston University after a Kingston University Journalism Society event.
