Amazing Report on the AMA Collegiate Conference in New Orleans

Greetings from New Orleans!

This was my first conference as the AMA Faculty Advisor and was delighted with the participation of the students:

Nina Guenther (sophomore)

Zack Kutchma (freshman)

Nicolette McDonough (senior)

Anthony Puglisi (junior)

Keith Tate (sophomore)

Abigail Watkins (sophomore)

They engaged in the following activities:

Four hour "AMA Digital Marketing Bootcamp"

Onsite "Marketing Strategy Competition”

"Pitch Perfect" sales competition

Four hour "Marketplace Simulations Competition."

and many other activities. 

While they did not place in any of the competitive events I feel they have gained valuable experience as we look forward.

Capping off the conference was the Awards Banquet.  I am absolutely delighted that the presenter stunned the table when he announced the RMU AMA chapter is a Top 25 Chapter of 2018-19!  The students didn't think the chapter was winning anything this year (not sure why as I thought they had done a fair amount of recognizable activities) so the look on their faces was priceless.  Fortunately, the president (Nina) recovered quickly and dashed up to the front of the room to claim their plaque.  (Picture attached.)  Please congratulate them on their chapter success if you see them in class or on campus!

As we like to say down here, laissez les bons temps roulez!  I'm off to toast to their success!

Dr. Steven Clinton, AMA Faculty Advisor
