LAST Speaker Meeting of the YEAR!

Description
Hello hello everyone! I want to invite you all to the last WIB speaker meeting of the 2008-2009 school year. The semester sure has gone by quickly and the 60-70 degree days certainly have been making it harder to focus on school (especially if you are a senior)! But there is still one more great WIB speaker meeting to attend:

Wednesday, April 22, 2009 from 12-1 pm in Hanson Hall 1-103 -- Beth Smits, VP of Service Operations -- Best Buy

Beth Smits, VP of Service Operations at Best Buy, will be coming to discuss Best Buy's WOLF Program. WOLF stands for WOmen's Leadership Forum and is a group at Best Buy that helps build strong female leaders at the company. Check them out on Facebook (WOLFinspires).

Also at the last speaker meeting, the 2009-2010 WIB Executive Board will be introduced! Lunch will be provided (MESA pizza). I hope to see you there!

It's hard to believe that the semester is already winding down. Our last WIB speaker of the semester is tomorrow, Wells Fargo, and after that a month off! It'll be a great time to refresh, rejuvenate, and come back in full swing for second semester. Thank you to everyone for their help in making this semester such a successful one for WIB!

...And We're Off !!

Description
Welcome to a new school year and a new and exciting year for Women in Business! WIB has multiple kick off events planned this year that are sure to be a lot of fun. Check out our calendar of events for dates to not only learn about WIB but also to get some great food (always a plus)!

One great thing about these events is that you will meet the Executive Board members. Yes, I may be a biased source but I'm very proud of all the planning the WIB E-Board has done over the summer to make this school year a SPECTACULAR one for WIB. These are an amazing bunch of young women and I can assure any potential member of WIB that everyone on the E-Board dedicates a great deal of time to make WIB a positive experience for you.

There are so many ways to get involved with WIB, whether it be attending speaker meetings, volunteering on a commitee, attending social or networking events, or even becoming part of the E-Board as a Freshman Representative. I can happily say that joining WIB was one of the best decisions I could have made during my early years at the U. I've met so many great people, students and professionals alike and have heard some amazing speakers. Coming from a small town, WIB has also allowed me to bring the U down to a more managable size. Now I see faces I know everywhere!

So, come join WIB for one of our upcoming events. WIB has a lot to offer and is sure to be a great experience! I hope to see many new and returning faces to WIB this year!

-- Amy Brinkman, VP of Corporate Relations
