Business School For the World, Not Of the World

Transcript

Okay everyone, let’s head over to the student center and meet senior Evan. Evan is an accounting major in the Dayton school of business. Asbury is preparing students for an ever-changing global economy, and Asbury’s Dayton School of business is one of the ways students are preparing for this future. In the business school, professors are focused on teaching students to be the best for the world, not of the world. Let’s check out Evan’s story. Evan, please take it away.

– Thanks Alex. Hey, y’all. When college searching, I wanted a place where I’d be challenged and thrive, with both my education and experiences. College is not just about education, but the moments that cultivate our future. I chose Asbury University because of the people here who truly want to invest in my life. And I know that as an accounting major in the business school, I’ll be prepared to work as an expert financial advisor while positively impacting the lives of those I work with. For the last three years, I gained real world leadership skills by serving on the cabinet recently as president, for Asbury’s Phi Beta Lambda chapter, a national career preparation organization for college students. Professors here encourage us to become the best we can be for the world, by teaching biblical principles of stewardship and ethics. They even throw us dinners to celebrate our hard work. Alumni support is also critical to the Dayton school of business’ success. Asbury alumni and friends gifted our gorgeous campus with a new $26 million collaborative learning center. Soon, we’ll share this cutting edge new space with our classmates in the school of sciences. The CLC will bring together future entrepreneurs and scientists, healthcare professionals, and marketing experts to learn from and with each other. Thus collaboration will help make it possible to combine the sciences with business and get real world experience, such as bringing new discoveries to the market. The professors and mentors at Asbury prepared me for future success by providing great networking connections in my career field and practical opportunities to build my resume. Most importantly, I am both prepared and motivated to serve others, provide creative solutions to today’s pressing problems and add value to the market. Now I have two internships and Asbury’s MBA program lined up after I graduate. The Dayton school of business places all the tools necessary for our journey in front of us. All we have to do is grab them and dream. Throwing it back to you, Alex.

– Evan, nice dance moves. Thank you. Your passion for sharing how Asbury is preparing you to provide creative solutions to today’s problems, and adding value to the marketplace is so inspiring. We look forward to cheering you on as you complete that MBA. Cheers Evan.
