Start Here. Go Anywhere.

Grounded in the spirit of Cur Non, the Dyer Center helps Lafayette students turn ideas into impact. We believe every student has the potential to create meaningful change, whether by launching a venture, leading a movement, or innovating from within. Here, students find the inspiration, knowledge, and support to take action.

You do not need to call yourself an entrepreneur to belong here; all you need to bring is your curiosity and a willingness to explore.

Get Inspired

Through events, guest speakers, and hands-on stories of change, we introduce students to new possibilities and help spark ideas worth pursuing.

Explore what entrepreneurship can look like in the real world.

Build Knowledge

From skill-building workshops to courses across disciplines, we support students in learning how to think creatively, solve problems, and understand how ventures work.

Develop the the mindsets to turn innovative ideas into action.

Take Action

Whether you are launching a project, testing a solution, or growing a venture, we’re here to help you take meaningful steps forward.

Put your ideas into action with guidance, funding, and space to experiment.
