LETTER FROM THE CHAIR AND THE PRESIDENT
Deep into their semester, students are now seeking summer internship and career opportunities. We often hear from them that Marketing EDGE programs provide … yes, that special “edge.” And we rarely tout it, but professionals also say they gain an “edge” when hiring students involved with us. Clearly, these students are “rising stars” in waiting! To see the caliber of excellence, and the path being blazed for young professionals, meet our 2014 Rising Stars. (And reserve today to meet them in person on June 3!)

Terri L. Bartlett 

Marketing EDGE President
