Information Booth-Why should non-Business majors join PBL?

Our chapter Historian Michelle Holder and our Parliamentary procedure committee officer, Patricia DeAnda-Likes, set up a booth today, in the Student Services Lounge. They both wanted to give out information out about who we are, and what Phi Beta Lambda is, as well as to stress the importance of why people should join our chapter.

“So many people think this is just a club for Business majors and we want to let people know that is not the case. You don’t have to be majoring in Business to become involved with us. For example, I had a student tell me they were going into teaching. When you teach, you are a part of a school, and the school is a business. Everyone in nearly all occupations are involved in business in some way, they just might not realize it. We want to reach those people and let them know that there is a huge benefit to networking within our club, regardless of their chosen occupation or major.” –Patricia DeAnda-Likes

Thanks to Michelle and Patricia, several new members were recruited. Both of these ladies have done a tremendous job promoting our club by putting out table toppers in the cafeteria as well as designing t-shirts for our club members. Thank you ladies for your all of your hard work!
