4/19/11 GBM Maximizing Your Summer

4/19/11 GBM Maximizing Your Summer

To close out the year, BWUA hosted its final general body meeting to give members crucial information that would enable them to make the most out of their summers. BWUA president Triston Francis and executive board member Taylor O’hare moderated the meeting. They began by outlining the various opportunities available to members over the summer (internships and summer classes). After discussing these opportunities, the moderators opened the floor for discussion, in which older members who had previously had internships or taken summer classes could offer words of advice to the underclassmen. Topics discussed included paid vs. unpaid internships, shadowing professionals, taking classes online, networking while at the job and much more. The interactive nature of the meeting ensured that all members truly gained something beneficial heading into their summers.

On behalf of the executive board, thank you to all our members for a great spring semester and we will see you in the fall! Have a great summer!
