As we close out the last few days of the 2024/25 Academic Year, I would like to congratulate all of the graduating students, the faculty, and the administrators for a successful year. The business council wishes all graduating students the very best of success as you venture out from Monmouth University and on to your careers.
For the Business Council, it’s been a busy year as well. During this year, the Business Council:
- Awarded over $4,000 in endowed scholarships to students
- Awarded $3,000 in annual scholarships to students
- Awarded $5,000 in annual awards to students
- Awarded $21,400 to 12 faculty research projects
In addition, we administered the Executive Mentoring Program, modernized the look and feel of the website and newsletter, continued the Professor in Residence Program, added several new members, and continued to build a collegial community with a common interest in making Monmouth University the best it can be.
As we close out this academic year with our annual spring social, our efforts will refocus on supporting the students and faculty once the summer break is over. I’m looking forward to spending time with all of the council members on June 20th at our Spring Social in a relaxing and social environment. Thanks to all of the committee chairs who have dedicated their time to the activities of this year. Thanks to all of the members of the committees who have contributed to the great work we have accomplished. See you on June 20th, and have a great summer.
