鈥淲hen I found out I was a finalist for Perfect Pitch, I was ecstatic. I was not expecting this as no one at 缅北强奸 had made it to the finals before, and it is such a selective competition,鈥� said McClain Wood. 鈥淭he networking and camaraderie among students were by far my favorite parts. I will forever cherish this time with my fellow AMA members鈥攊t was an honor to represent 缅北强奸 together!"听

Alex Perry added: 鈥淎lthough I鈥檓 a finance and accounting major, being part of 缅北强奸鈥檚 AMA chapter has been a huge part of my college experience and has helped me grow both personally and professionally. I鈥檝e had the opportunity to attend the conference in New Orleans two years in a row, and each time has given me the chance to make the most of my time at 缅北强奸. It鈥檚 allowed me to connect with others, travel and learn the importance of marketing myself in both academic and professional settings."听

While at the conference, students also got to participate in fun activities such as an Opening Ceremony celebration which included a parade of all the chapters who attended the conference. Students also listened to keynote speeches from Martin Nance, Chief Marketing Officer of the NFL鈥檚 Minnesota Vikings, and Mark Romig, Chief Marketing Officer of New Orleans & Company.听听

Students also had the opportunity to immerse themselves in the culture of the city of New Orleans by visiting places such as Canal Street, Jackson Square and The National WWII Museum.

This event became a staple for Gracie Madison, senior marketing, public relations and advertising major and AMA Chapter President, as she has made the trip for the past three years. As she prepares to graduate, she鈥檚 grateful for the experience being a member of AMA has given her and believes it鈥檚 helped her be more prepared for post-college life.听听听

鈥淏eing a part of AMA, especially as the Chapter President this year, has had a huge impact on my college experience and my future after college. I鈥檝e gained so much experience through the professional development activities we do, attending our conference and competing, and by managing the chapter in a leadership position,鈥� Madison said. 鈥淭he skills I鈥檝e learned from being responsible for the chapter will serve me throughout my career in any leadership position I hold. I am extremely grateful for the opportunities AMA and the Romain College of Business have given me!鈥�听
