. The goal, Morrisville professors say, is to equip students with the knowledge and experience necessary to pursue a range of cannabis-related careers .
Because the Morrisville campus boasts resources including a greenhouse and an organic farm, students learn"from start to finish how to cultivate, produce, harvest, and breed cannabis plants in a variety of different settings," Kelly Hennigan, horticulture department chair, told Business Insider. Morrisville has a license to grow hemp plants, which are all below 0.3% THC, meaning they don't contain the chemicals that cause psychoactive effects.
Seaborn added that students who take his"business of marijuana" course become much more emotionally invested in the content than students in, say, his consulting courses. The guest speakers, he said, are"business people who've taken some pretty big risks and maybe walked away from other opportunities to join something that is pretty new and uncharted.
Seaborn said many schools are understandably wary of offering cannabis courses."The same way that students are having to really navigate this whole new emerging world, I think it also is forcing business schools and universities in general to also try to figure out what their role should be and what the right pace of getting involved is."
