Gary Welch, president of the MBA Leadership Council, sent along a brief review of recent events –
Welcome Back Reception:
Richmond MBA students enjoyed a fun evening of socializing on September 16, 2009 in the Business School Atrium. New and returning students had a chance to meet fellow classmates and to learn more about participating in student organizations. Stories of international excursions, Opening Residency rites of passage, and summer activities were told while munching on appetizers prior to class. The event was a great way to kick off the start of a new semester! A special thanks to Lois, Debbie, and Jackie for helping to make the event a success.
High Ropes Course Event:
A contingent of students was brave enough to tackle the High Ropes Course Challenge on the University of Richmond campus the morning of September 19, 2009. Dressed in comfortable clothes and sneakers, the group first prepared for the challenges ahead by engaging in ground activities to develop team building, communication, and trust. The true test began once they climbed up the course to conquer the eight unique sections with safety harnesses attached. Even though at points they were over 30 feet off of the ground, the students were not to be foiled. They successfully completed every section and had a great time doing it!
