“NSBE has been one of my favorite journeys. Joining was an opportunity to not only build myself, but also to lead and make valuable connections. It was the first club that I joined, where I went from becoming a member(a shadow) and eventually leading on the executive board. Even though I joined later in my years, I grew as a professional and as a person through networking, traveling, mentoring, leading events, and being part of such an inclusive community. The word “growth” would be an understatement, because NSBE carries a profoundly new meaning to it.”

“I was a freshman when I joined NSBE as a member. I didn’t know anybody on campus. From then on NSBE has taught me to be open to meeting new people and making connections, taught me how to grow academically as a student as well as a leader and so much more. This chapter has made a huge impact in who I am in college today and always supported me. I have life long friends and opportunities that I will forever be thankful for.”

“NSBE has become an integral entity in defining who I am. As the saying goes, “ he who climbs a good tree gets a good push.” The good legacy of one member persuades others to join and people with diverse skills can cultivate a stronger vision.”
