Thank you for your patience as we made our way through applications, interviews, and in-depth FBI background checks (kidding) these past few weeks. I am so impressed by all of you and we are lucky to have so many accomplished and dedicated students on our team.

We won’t have time to talk about everything on there since we only have a limited amount of time per interview. I’m looking forward to talking with each of you soon and hearing your thoughts and ideas for the upcoming year.

Reminder that exec applications are due TODAY!! The interview spreadsheet has been changed: all interviews will be 15 minutes long due to the volume of applications.
