THRIFT, BUT MAKE IT FASHION

One of the course for the Event Management minors is an Event Production class which is a Service Learning course. We start with a zero-base budget and are asked to make up a new event from scratch. Any profits that are made are expected to be donated to a charity of the groups choosing. For…

CGL145L

CGL145 was a huge launching point for me. I really have never learned as much in a course as I was able to in this discussion based class. The class alternated between lecture and discussion style class formats. One day a week we were placed in dialogue groups to have deeper discussions on readings, articles,…

Junior Year

I think a lot of my greatest lessons of this year came out of the opportunities I was afforded. I found myself more as a professional, and as a leader than I ever have before through my involvements, and the people I was surrounded by. Below is a list of the most impactful to me…

Selfless Service
