AMAzing! (Bad play on words)

Some of you may know about my involvement with the SDSU Chapter of the American Marketing Association. For those who do not, here is a quick background.

As a freshman, I decided to get more involved on campus. I came across a flier* for the American Marketing Association.

* NOTE: Firefox told me that “flyer” is incorrect and “flier” is correct. After a quick Google search, I found that both are correct, interchangeable spellings of the word, but “flier” is preferred over “flyer”. Interesting.

I went to the first AMA meeting and absolutely fell in love. It was much different than any other club on campus and I really felt at home. The next three years went something like this: I ran for a board position and became VP of Interactive Media/Webmaster (www.sdsuama.com), then VP of Finance, and finally President.

Recently, the SDSU AMA was featured in “Marketing News Magazine” and received Honorable Mention in the Karl Mann Website Competition at the National AMA Conference in New Orleans.

I am really going to miss AMA when I graduate next year. It has been my life for the past three years and I will miss it more than anything.
