Brent Skoda and Whitney Williams, both seniors at TCU, were two of nine students from across the nation featured in Inc. for America's Coolest College Start-ups 2010.

Skoda began CollegeFitness.com, a social networking site for students hoping to get into better shape. The free site is supported by ads and has 12,000 members who use the site for workout videos, diet planners, weight-loss trackers and more.

After being inspired by artisans she encountered in Italy, Williams began Tramonti (Italian word for sunset),  a jewelry business. After graduation, Williams has plans for expansion of her business and branching into shoes, clothing and accessories.
