Favorite LSB class. Why?
MGMT 80 -"The Global & Cultural Environment of Business." My group and I designed our own product called PureLife portable water filters with a mission to help those in the Philippines to never be far from fresh, filtered water. We also developed a market entry strategy for the Philippines by creating a market intelligence report and a business environment analysis report. We also created a company website using Google sites, a video for the government officials in the Philippines, and powerpoint for the investor community.
What made you choose to attend LSB?
I wanted to follow the footsteps of 4 of my family members who also earned their undergraduate degree at SCU. Two of them are business school alumni in marketing/retail studies and accounting.
