Networking Trading Cards...!?!?!

The GDBA program trading cards are being handed out. To get your own set please see me before or after class.

Also, a reminder that the application form and supporting documents for the Bourse d'études Supériueres en Commerce et en Administration Humberto Santos is due next week on Monday, January 25th. Many of you have had complications finding the application form so I included a link in the right hand column.



Finally, the GDBA program has been invited to attend the next CGSA inter-university networking event. The event is taking place January 21, at Le Quartier, 1001 Square Victoria (right next to Metro Square Victoria), at 10 pm. MBA students from HEC, UQAM, and McGill will also be attending. Drinks (except champagne) will be served at a special happy hour rate ($5.5 per drink) all night, and there is no cost to attend. This is a great opportunity to network with other MBA students living in Montreal. Click here for the Evite...

Until next time,

Your friendly blogger

I am also pleased to announce that I have some great news for you all.
