Beta Gamma Sigma Induction Ceremony


Last week, I attended the Belk College of Business Beta Gamma Sigma Induction Ceremony. Brief history of BSG: It is the only international business honor society that recognizes academic excellence at an AACSB accredited school. The BSG has over 635,000 members worldwide and is highly recognized by employers.  This year's event was held at the Ritz Carlton Charlotte. For the spring semester, we inducted approximately 60 undergraduate and graduate students into the program.

It was a true honor to be able to participate in this year's ceremony. The ceremony consisted of a pre-reception in which BCOB students actively networked with fellow students, faculty, staff, and guests. The culmination of the event was an award recognition which was led by the Associate Dean of Graduate Programs, Dr. Christie Amato. Each student proudly walked to receive their Beta Gamma Sigma cords and certificates from Jeremiah Nelson, Director of Graduate Student services, and Robin Boswell, Director of Graduate Student Career Development.

I must say each student beamed with a sense of accomplishment. Personally, I knew several graduate students who were inducted on Friday; however I was proud of their accomplishments. (Of course I might have clapped just a little bit louder).  On a personal level, I knew the students' work ethic and dedication to their particular field of study and commended them for their accomplishment.
