The council, which will begin major operations in the 2011-12 school year, is composed of eight undergraduate members. Their main focus will be to work with administration and faculty and provide them with student ideas to improve the Opus College of Business. Members will take every student’s ideas into consideration, and several options are being created to connect council members to their peers.

A “Get to Know Us” event will be held on Thursday, May 5. Meet the Undergraduate Business Council members who will be on hand in the 15-minute increments between classes from 9:30 a.m. to 5:15 p.m. outside of McNeely Hall. More information about the council and a special treat will be available.

Council members for the 2011-12 academic year are: Travis Atkinson, Meghan Galloway, Don Kneepkens, Rich Marshall, Stephanie Possehl, Kyle Mulrooney, Kari Johnson and Sean Ness.
