Fellow Net Impacters,
I think I know most, if not all of you. As you may have heard, I am running for President of GBSA with Whitney Drucker as my VP. I have been involved in GBSA and Net Impact since I started here at Daniels last fall as a full-time MBA. I am so excited for this opportunity and to be part of the NI leadership team for next year as your VP of Community Involvement.
I would love your support and hope to bring together initiatives set out by GBSA and NI in the coming year. I will be a strong advocate for putting on next years Sustainability Expo and getting more people to come to this year's Sustainability Conference at Cornell. I hope to get DU seen as a leading university in the field of sustainability, and want to accomplish this with the support of NI.
Below I've included links to our Facebook groups, voting instructions, and some info on Whitney and my community involvement here at Daniels that set us apart from our competition. Please join our groups and stay in the loop on all GBSA events. |

Hi All,
I wanted to say THANK YOU on behalf of myself, Rob Writz, and the Net Impact leadership team. We appreciate you all putting up with the last minute changes and hectic schedules that goes along with pulling off this kind of event on the first go-around. The event was a huge success and we hope that you all made some good contacts and enjoyed the events.
We heard from both the NREL and Pepsi/Frito Lay reps that our students were the most professional and prepared out of any career fair they have attended. Thanks to you for making a great impression on all our employers.
We intend this to be an annual event. For this reason, I would love to hear any and all feedback (positive or negative) so we can make this event even better next year. Look out for a survey that will go to the whole listserv, but in the mean time, your e-mail feedback is even more valuable. Please shoot me any thoughts you have via e-mail.
Thank you again!
