End of semester reflections...

Graduation is rapidly approaching here at The University of Georgia, so as the schoolwork begins to wind down, I wanted to take a few minutes to reflect on the semester. It is safe to say that this semester has helped to provide me with the clearest picture of my career beyond the classroom. I would be remiss if I failed to mention the huge impact that my social media marketing class, and most notably my professor, Jennifer Osbon, has had on my career outlook post-graduation. 

While I already harbored a particular interest in social prior to this MARK 5000 class, the content, thought, real world application, and energy that Professor Osbon brings into the classroom and her lectures each day was hugely refreshing. Easily the best professor I have had here at the University of Georgia, her rookie year here has already begun to give the Terry College of Business a modern edge that it needs to continue improving its growth and sustainability well into the future. 

More than willing to help her students in regards to career aspirations, she never shies away from actively using her expansive network to put her students and The University of Georgia on the metaphorical digital marketing map. This is not to say that other professors here at The University of Georgia are unwilling to aid students in regards to career aspirations (actually, its is quite the opposite), merely that Professor Osbon has proven herself to be among the most proactive in this regard. Simply put: she is here for the students.

I'm quite confident that The Terry College of Business' "baptism" into the fray of digital/social marketing could be helmed by no one better.

To current students... register quickly before classes fill up! They promise to do so quickly.
