In today's business environment, a strong personal network has become extremely important for not only personal growth but for your professional development as well. Our affiliation with the Columbus Chapter of the National Black MBA Association and their corporate partners serve as inroads towards networking with several business professionals, executives, and successful entrepreneurs in the Columbus community, ultimately enhancing the Fisher experience.
The BMBAA encourages our students to find a balance between academic, social and professional interests. We have general body meetings intended to keep our membership abreast of organizational activities as well as events sponsored by the Columbus Chapter of the NBMBAA. We have quarterly social activities focusing on building camaraderie, which encourages our members to interact not only inside but outside of the classroom as well. Finally, we have a monthly community involvement initiative that provides a great opportunity for our organization to volunteer in the community and assist us in our effort to make the difference that will last a lifetime!
There is nothing that pushes me to strive on more than the testimonies of those that have gone before me. The first few weeks at Fisher were very challenging .The readings, assignments, team meetings, and a host of other important things seemed to come all at once. The 2nd year MBA student members of the Black MBA Association provided insights on how to be both effective and efficient. Knowing that they overcame many of my same challenges gives me the strength to keep doing my best.
The benefits of belonging to an association of this caliber transcend support with school work. The association is very active in the community through various volunteer and mentorship activities. This gives you the chance to become a well developed leader. There is a lot to be said of the networking opportunities as well that are available to us through the Black MBA Association's partnership with the Columbus Chapter of the National Black MBA Association.

“FEA is designed to help MBA students learn and network in the areas of entrepreneurship and new venture funding. However, entrepreneurship is not just about starting your own company or entering the venture capital ranks. Entrepreneurship is also focused on applying innovative, self-motivated strategies within large organizations that push the business forward. Just take a look at the number of job descriptions that list ‘entrepreneurial spirit’ as a desired trait. FEA has certainly helped me learn about what it takes to be an entrepreneur, what it means to be an entrepreneur in a large organization and how to build a network both here in Ohio and nationwide.”

Fisher Follies
Fisher Follies is a spectacular spring production featuring a dizzying array of humorous skits, videos & musical numbers created to poke good fun at ourselves after a year of taking ourselves way too seriously. Aside from the chance to roast your classmates and professors in front of 500 of your closest frenemies soliciting gut wrenching laughs along the way, there’s nothing really to gain here. Follies will not make you richer, better looking, easier on the planet, further networked or positioned for a great career. Its only purpose is…well…hilarity. Oh and if we have a buck or two left over, we give it to the charity because it’s more pleasant on the conscience than buying the cast another case of veuve at the after party. That is debated, of course.
Here at Ohio State, we are looking for students interested in:
* Frivolous, amusing pursuits
* Self deprecation
* Dancing, Singing, Acting, Writing, Filming — or something that passes as such
* Doing something with those class notes which tally professors’ quirks
* Pure public humiliation — of self or others
Fall semester features Follies' annual silent and deadly auction of items ranging from luxurious to scandalous with heavy stops at valuable and funny. Fall semester is also our writing season where everyone is asked to write skits and musical numbers full of wit and folly. The giggliest gems are selected for spring rehearsals culminating in the annual show.

In Their Words
The students at FISA provided invaluable advice to me concerning elective choices, majors, networking opportunities, etc. They are always there to help and support you as they understand what you are going through and empathize with you. In fact they continue to provide guidance even after they have graduated from Fisher and are in other cities. I also very much enjoyed participating in UTSAV. I understand the challenges the FISA must have gone through to put together such a big event, coordinating practices among big groups, etc, but in the end it was worth all the time and effort that went into it.
