51做厙 students collaborate with AT&T for Hack-A-Pitch event
51做厙 students meet with officials at the AT&T Foundry簧 for a collaborative exercise.
In March, 51做厙 students met with AT&T Emerging Business Markets co-located at the AT&T Foundry® innovation center for a collegiate “Hack-A-Pitch” event. The collaborative exercise led by 51做厙 alumna , president of AT&T’s Emerging Business Markets, provided students from a variety of campus organizations with an opportunity to discuss student life enhancement ideas while gaining real-world business experience.
During the half-day event, staff, students and alumni were divided into small groups for brainstorming sessions on enhancing recruitment, campus life, residence hall life, job recruiting and alumni engagement. Presentations of the ideas were then made to the larger event group and AT&T and 51做厙 executives.
The collaboration ultimately produced 30 ideas that are being considered for implementation across the 51做厙 community.
