My Life in Pictures

As promised, here are some pictures of some of the happenings of late.  Some are sort of random, but interesting nonetheless.  I'll start from most recent and work backwards.  A picture is worth a thousand words, so this may be a very long post.  Bear with me.

So that's what I've been up to lately.  There's so much more to getting your MBA than sitting in the classroom.  Remember the experience is what you make of it, and you should make the most of it.

Lunch and Learn for Prospective MBA Students

We are hosting an MBA Campus Visit Day on Monday, November 1. This is event is for prospective MBA students. Jeff Murray has agreed to do the lunch and learn and it will be 11:00-12:30, location to be determined. His topic will more than likely be ethnography, although he is thinking about another option as well. 

In other news, I went to the Snoop Dogg concert this past weekend at Barnhill Arena, the leaves are changing colors, and the Razorback football team is winning again.  I will provide a more thorough update later including some pictures.

Fall Social

Well I've survived one test so far this week.  A couple more the next couple days, then I'm in the clear for a little while.  Fall is in the air.  The weather is starting to cool down a bit and the leaves should start changing colors soon.  Should be some great photo ops in the next couple of weeks.

The GSB Fall Social is Thursday night.  If you or someone you know is interested in pursuing an MBA or some other graduate degree through the Walton College of Business, then this is the event for you.  It's a good chance for prospective students to talk to current and former students, as well as professors and faculty.  You can gain a lot of perspective from these events.  I went to this event last fall and it was nice to meet some of the students and future classmates.  Besides the foods pretty good too.  So if you're interested come on down to the Powerhouse just off Dickson, it kicks off around 6:00.

In sports news, the Razorback football team narrowly won this past Saturday defeating Texas A&M.  However, Alabama lost which means the Razorbacks may have a shot at winning the SEC West.  A road trip to Auburn this week is the next hurdle for the football team.

Moving right along, the CRE Conference last week was fairly interesting.  Lots of great speakers, most notably Kevin Roberts of Saatchi&Saatchi, Bill Simon of Walmart, and Bob McDonald of P&G.

Well I better get back to studying, two more tests coming up.  Wish me luck.
