My name is Ashley Daniels and I am a Junior hoping to be the next BBA Council President. I am currently the VP of Club on BBA Council and feel that I have gained vital experience that will lend itself to a successful presidential term. This past year I lead the creation of the Goizueta Creed, restructuring of Goizueta clubs, and the establishment of the BBA/MBA Mentorship program. I truly adore my BBA experience and I hope that I can use the skills I have developed through these endeavors to share that passion with my fellow students. I hope to be responsive and advocate for BBAs while focusing on increasing opportunities for student involvement, establishing a legacy of care at Goizueta, and creating a welcoming community where all students feel they belong. In sum, I want to continue adding to the already incredible Goizueta BBA program in ways that make other students as proud of Goizueta as I am.

If elected my primary focus will be on expanding equal opportunities to all of my Goizueta peers. Whether you are a domestic or international student, a Spring or Fall admit, from Emory or Oxford College, or even if you have a class that gets out at 5:15 during Kegs – the opportunities provided by BBA Council should be the same for everyone. I hope to accomplish expanded equal opportunity through initiatives such as the Goizueta Dream Fund, pre-Kegs registration, and H-1B visa networking night. By taking these first steps I truly believe that we can build on the success of Council this past year and unleash the potential of everyone at Goizueta.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][ultimate_spacer height=”20″][ultimate_heading main_heading=”Jake Gruber” main_heading_font_family=”font_family:Average|font_call:Average” main_heading_font_size=”desktop:25px;” main_heading_style=”font-weight:bold;”][/ultimate_heading][ultimate_spacer height=”20″][ultimate_spacer height=”20″][vc_raw_html]JTNDaWZyYW1lJTIwd2lkdGglM0QlMjI1NjAlMjIlMjBoZWlnaHQlM0QlMjIzMTUlMjIlMjBzcmMlM0QlMjJodHRwcyUzQSUyRiUyRnd3dy55b3V0dWJlLmNvbSUyRmVtYmVkJTJGSXZwazdqTmJ5eDAlMjIlMjBmcmFtZWJvcmRlciUzRCUyMjAlMjIlMjBhbGxvdyUzRCUyMmF1dG9wbGF5JTNCJTIwZW5jcnlwdGVkLW1lZGlhJTIyJTIwYWxsb3dmdWxsc2NyZWVuJTNFJTNDJTJGaWZyYW1lJTNF[/vc_raw_html][vc_column_text]My name is Jake Gruber, and I am a junior hoping to serve as the next president of the BBA Council. Having served on multiple executive boards including, the Student Alumni Board and Interfraternity Council, I am prepared and extremely motivated to implement change to the BBA program in terms of building a definitive cohesive community, encouraging student engagement, and defining Goizueta’s culture. I want to promote stronger student programming, greater inclusion and support for newly admitted students and alumni, and stress the importance of collaboration between student organizations, career management, and faculty. As a goal-oriented, innovative, and driven leader, I believe that I can facilitate the creation of a BBA experience that will be unforgettable. By listening to student voices, learning from past programs, and encouraging constructive relationships, the BBA experience will continue to grow and flourish.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][ultimate_heading main_heading=”RHA President” heading_tag=”h1″ main_heading_font_size=”desktop:45px;”][/ultimate_heading][vc_separator][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/3″][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/3″][ultimate_heading main_heading=”Aaron Jordan” main_heading_font_family=”font_family:Average|font_call:Average” main_heading_font_size=”desktop:25px;” main_heading_style=”font-weight:bold;”][/ultimate_heading][ultimate_spacer height=”20″][ultimate_spacer height=”20″][vc_raw_html]JTNDaWZyYW1lJTIwd2lkdGglM0QlMjI1NjAlMjIlMjBoZWlnaHQlM0QlMjIzMTUlMjIlMjBzcmMlM0QlMjJodHRwcyUzQSUyRiUyRnd3dy55b3V0dWJlLmNvbSUyRmVtYmVkJTJGZ1pPVFJtVzltc0UlMjIlMjBmcmFtZWJvcmRlciUzRCUyMjAlMjIlMjBhbGxvdyUzRCUyMmF1dG9wbGF5JTNCJTIwZW5jcnlwdGVkLW1lZGlhJTIyJTIwYWxsb3dmdWxsc2NyZWVuJTNFJTNDJTJGaWZyYW1lJTNF[/vc_raw_html][vc_column_text]
As RHA President, I want to increase the number of Dooley’s Bowl events and incentivize them with giveaways to increase participation in campus-wide events. School spirit is very important to me, and will be top-of-mind in the planning of every RHA event. Every year, school spirit starts off high with Songfest, but I have noticed that it tends to taper off afterwards. By increasing engagement in Dooley’s Bowls events through additional events and prizes, I believe that we can bring a lasting Emory spirit to the residence halls.
Second, I want to increase RHA’s national presence. This semester, Emory RHA was chartered under the national RHA organization, NACURH. I plan to become the first RHA President to lead a delegation to NACURH conference, as well as the SAACURH regional Conference. I think it is so important for a university as prominent as Emory to be represented at these national events.
