Six Western Washington University students were recently chosen to participate in the leadership lunch event at Boeing Employees Credit Union (BECU) in Tukwila on Feb. 10.
The quarterly CBE Leadership Lunch Program recognizes students who distinguished themselves through scholarship and leadership while in the College of Business and Economics. Students are nominated by faculty in their respective departments.
The selected students include Aly Howisey, MBA, Kirkland; Matthew Hale, Accounting, Gig Harbor; Kristi Gross, Decision Sciences, Lynden; Tessa Griffin, Economics, Bainbridge Island; Shelly Durfey, Marketing, Sunnyside; and Matthew Davenport, Management, Bellingham.
The students were joined at the lunch by seven business leaders and four faculty and administrators from the CBE and the Western Foundation.
At the lunch, students met with the business leaders to discuss topics concerning organizational leadership and career development. The lunch provided an opportunity for the business professionals to contribute to the educational mission of the College of Business and Economics through interactions with students and faculty.
