Mark your calendars for some creative fun, free custom stickers, caramel corn, and community connections at the first gathering of the George Fox Business Club: Slides Night, from 6 to 7:30 p.m. this Tuesday, Oct. 17. You can RSVP here.
Come join us in Stevens 207 for a chance to connect with students across all of the business majors, enjoy some caramel corn, and exercise your creative and comedic skills in a marketing activity open to all.
For Slides Night, we’ll share a little about the Business Club and give you some time to get to know other students in small groups. Then, we’ll present everyone with a prompt / problem to solve and give your small group about 20 minutes to come up with the most creative, effective, or goofy solution to the prompt and “market” it to the rest of us with a couple of presentation slides.
What do you need to bring? Please bring yourself and a laptop (we’ll even give you a free Business Club sticker to put on it)!
Not a business student, but interested in joining us? Come see what we’re about!
