Fall 2010 Student Leadership Forum


  
“This event has definitely impacted me deeply. The profound revelations and insight I gained through this experience will have a long lasting place in my life, both in a leadership capacity and on a personal level.”
Scott McWilliams - Lamar University
“The Leadership Forum truly was the highlight of my senior year, so far. It has challenged me to better myself as a leader and a business student, and also allowed me to personally reflect upon my goals and aspirations in life.”
John Battipaglia - James Madison University
“I’m so glad I was chosen to attend this Forum. I wasn’t sure what to expect but I think that was part of the fun. It was such a nice change to be around so many great people who are in the same situation as me and just be there to talk about all of our ideas, questions, fears, hopes, goals, and experiences together. I’m really sad to go home! The time flies by.”
Danielle Long - Youngstown State University
“Most leaders are ‘assumed’ to have life figured out, a plan of how to make a difference, and have already set out to make their dreams happen. This forum proved to challenge the plans we made for ourselves and better hone in on what our true mission in leadership is.”
Carmen Nedab - North Carolina A&T State University
“This has been an invaluable experience for me to better understand myself and the impact of my actions, as well as the impact of the world on my personal growth! Thank you!”
Iva Naydenova - Quinnipiac University
“This was a fulfilling experience, in which I learned a lot about myself and others. I learned to be the person who takes risk and lives in the present, not the past or future.”
Morgan Reilly - University of Rhode Island
“The BGS Student Leadership Forum is an amazing opportunity to advance yourself personally and professionally. It is a completely different experience than any other leadership forum and is truly transformational.”
Brittany Atkinson - The University of North Carolina at Greensboro
“This was one of the best weekends I’ve had in a while. It was an insightful, influential and life-learning experience. I took down more personal information about life, its challenges and its beauty. Don’t regret anything and stand strong as a leader.”
Joseph Capodicasa - Rowan University
“I found questions about myself and my future that I didn’t know I had. The Forum gave me the courage to ask them and start moving in the right direction.”
David Learned - Western Kentucky University
“I am so grateful to have been a part of this Leadership Forum, it made me really take a close look at the possibilities that I have in the future and what I can do now to achieve my goals.”
Courtney Driggers - Francis Marion University
“This amazing experience truly changed me as a person for the better. I discovered things about myself I would never have known if it wasn’t for this Forum.”
Hanna Toebben - Morehead State University
“The BGS SLF was one of the best weekends of my life. Never have I experienced such a wide range of emotions in such a short period of time. I learned so much about myself and my aspirations. I really wish it wasn’t over.”
David Mahn - Francis Marion University
“The Forum helped me understand all of the important factors of leadership and how knowing more about myself and others can make me a better leader.”
Katie Reichenberger - Wichita State University
“Being with other business students has never been so refreshing, inquisitive, and thought-provoking. It’s challenged me to set high goals and know that others are in the same boat with me.”
Bryan Kujawa - Southeast Missouri State University
“This Forum doesn’t just open your eyes to who you are, like so many other conferences, but also how you can take who you are - good or bad - to become a stronger person.”
Kelly O’Brien - Arizona State University
“I have attended many leadership conferences, but the BGS Forum was a truly life-changing experience.”
Linn Baumgardt - James Madison University
“The Forum exceeded my expectations to the highest. The lessons I have learned and the relationships I have built will last a lifetime. I am so grateful I was a part of this experience.”
Courtney Benedict - Clemson University
“This past weekend has definitely helped create a vision for my future. Before I came to the Forum I felt stuck and confused about the path I wanted take after graduation. Now I have the clarity and the drive to succeed in the future.”
Alyssa Stuppiello - Brock University
“The Forum provided me the refreshing chance to really consider where my degree, interests, and passions could take me at a critical time in my life. Along with the opportunity to engage with my peers, the weekend gave me what I didn’t even realize I deeply needed.”
Natalie Graf - Truman State University
“The Forum was a great break from my everyday, hectic life. As a senior graduating in May, I have been struggling to choose a set path following graduation, but this Forum allowed me to re-focus and re-evaluate which components are most important.”
Kristen Peters - Saint Louis University
I’ve been to several leadership forums and the BGS Forum was, without a doubt, the best one I’ve attended. I learned so much about developing leadership skills and met amazing people! I would recommend this Forum to anyone and will make sure Elon is always in attendance.”
Jenn Kirts - Elon University
