On Raise Your Pick Giving Day, the Business Student Council is raising funds to provide support to all organizations. Funds generated will help student groups to travel to various industry conferences, competitions and showcases.  

We hope you will raise your pick for business students on April 12! Thank you in advance for contributing to access and excellence.
