The Busch School of Business

Transcript

Let’s chat with Jamie. She’s a junior marketing and entrepreneurship major from Garden City, New York. Jamie was drawn to Catholic University because of the lively city of DC, and the gorgeous new Bush School of Business. Jamie, you’re on, my friend.

– Thank you, Alex. I’m saying hi to you from my home at Catholic University. Since opening my first lemonade stand, I knew my future was business. I was drawn to the lively city of DC and the beautiful Bush School of Business. From the moment I stepped on campus, I knew I was home. One of the amazing opportunities I’ve been able to do here at Catholic U is started my own business. I turned a five figure profit in less than six months all at the age of 18. I felt unconditional support from my professors, who even offered to meet and advise me outside of the classroom. All first year students are assigned a mentor to help them navigate their first year. It’s a fantastic program. I have loved being a mentor myself, and helping students flourish. I even keep in contact with my mentor. And CACS, our Center for Academic and Career Success offers support, resources, and guidance for all students. I’ve also had the pleasure of serving on our Dean’s Student Advisory Council where we meet monthly with the Bush School Dean to discuss our classes, their structure, prepare for graduation, and offer insight into planning Bush School events. I have made some of my closest friends through my involvement in on campus activities, like being the class of 2024 senator, and SGA, our Student Government Association, and a Cardinal ambassador, where I volunteer as a tour guide in our admissions office. I know that Catholic University and the Bush School have equipped me with all the necessary tools to flourish in the business world after graduation, and no matter where life takes me, I can count on my amazing friends and community here at Catholic University. Once a Cardinal, always a Cardinal. Back to you, Alex. 

That is incredible, Jamie. We are so happy you found your home away from home at Catholic University along with the amazing community here at the flock. Like you said, once a Cardinal, you’re always a Cardinal. Thanks again.
