Beta Gamma Sigma student attends national conference

The Current, Winter 2002

For the third year in a row, University of Detroit Mercy’s chapter of Beta Gamma Sigma (BGS) was selected as one of only 75 out of 300 national chapters to participate in the BGS National Leadership Conference, held this year in Baltimore, beginning October 31. This year’s representative to the conference was senior Lajuanda Rogers. Her attendance was made possible through the generosity of George Barnes, a member of the College of Business Administration Advisory Board.

Beta Gamma Sigma is an international honor society that recognizes the outstanding academic achievements of students enrolled in collegiate business and management programs accredited by the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business. Membership in Beta Gamma Sigma is the highest national recognition a student can receive in an undergraduate or master’s program in business or management. To be eligible for membership, a student must rank in the upper seven percent of the junior class, upper 10 percent of the senior class, or upper 20 percent of the graduating master’s class.
