Yes, indeed. I also have remained
close to several former students. One, Julie Greiner, is now
executive vice president for Bloomingdale's in New York.
She's participated in various ways with the university
and was an honoree at Vision & Visionaries. It's
all interconnected.
I believe the corporate partners enjoy coming to our breakfasts
because they can network with other executives. I've
also had students who qualified for the Honors Networking
Program, attended the breakfasts, gotten their career offer,
gone to work for one of the companies, and in a few years,
have come back and represented that company in the Honors
Networking Program.
The program is very symbiotic. It benefits the students,
the corporate partners, the Marketing Department, the College
of Business and Economics, and the university. |
