From October 11th-14th the Reaching Out MBA Conference was held in San Francisco, hosting 800 attendees and over 70 companies. Georgetown was represented with 24 participants, one of the largest groups from any school.

We have all experienced it. On one of those days when you actually have the time to read the newspaper, you think to yourself, "Yes, that is what I call perfect competition." Or, on a very late Saturday night a friend is complaining a cover he paid to get into the 18th Street Lounge and you turn and say, "It's a sunk cost."

September 13th marked the start of the Graduate Investment Fund's Dartboard competition. This year, 90 participants are competing for the title of Georgetown's "Warren Buffett" and a gift voucher at the Tombs. Each participant was given $100,000 virtual dollars to invest in equities of his or her choice.

On September 13th, MSB took the halls of the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando, FL by storm. A total of 53 students attended the 29th annual National Black MBA Association Career Expo, and experienced two days of fun and productivity.

With more than 200 companies present, the conference opened the door for opportunities in fields from Finance to International Development to Marketing to Strategy. MSB was among 65 business schools in attendance...

Le Bon Temps Roule! Let the Good Times Roll - New Orleans. motto and an apt description for the true city that never sleeps! I had the opportunity to participate in Harrah.s President's Associate summer internship program in hot and steamy New Orleans, LA...

Marketing is what I've always wanted to do. Not the kind that requires endless excel sheets or number-based applications, the kind that inspires people.
