President & Event Update...!?!?!

Event Update !

Hi guys the John Molson Women In Business Club has recently informed me of an event taking place Friday, February 11 at 5:30p.m. The event is a live presentation about wardrobe essentials for graduating students in business. It is taking place at the Ogilvy Store in the Tudor Hall (5th Floor). Cost to attend is $10 for students. For more information please contact Tania ( tania_damico@hotmail.com ).

This week I have assembled a student Profile on your GDBSA president Meg Labban:

I signed up for the GDBA last year to learn more about business. Previously, I completed my undergraduate degree in biology with a minor in psychology. I'm currently in the process of finishing my doctorate in Neuroscience, working on the molecular mechanisms of memory. My interest in business developed during my PhD, when I began thinking about the next steps in my career. I'm glad I made the decision to sign up to the GDBA program; as I have discovered just how much I enjoy business. Surprisingly enough my favourite subject so far is Finance, a class I was initially apprehensive about. I am eager to graduate and move forward down a career path where I will be able to see the benefits from my scientific and business backgrounds.

I am a firm believer in making time for fun activities in life, and I enjoy quite a few hobbies, traveling being at the top of the list. Barcelona and London are currently my two favourite cities. I also really enjoy all kinds of performance arts and theatre, once as a performer and cellist but now simply as an avid spectator. In addition, I like being part of student organizations and being able to communicate our concerns to the administration, and to organize academic and social events to facilitate networking. That was one of the main reasons I decided to be part of the GDBA student association this year; so I can ensure we organize as many social networking events as possible. So far our events have been a success, and I hope to meet most of you before I graduate. Stay tuned for more to come this semester; you can keep a look out for our events right here on the blog.
