Back in November, Fisher Follies held their yearly auction - and it was an INCREDIBLE NIGHT. Now, I am on the Follies Steering Committee, so I might be a little biased :)For those who don't know, Fisher Follies is a student organization with a lot heart and even more personality. Follies strives to celebrate and leverage the camaraderie of all Fisher students, faculty and staff in order to raise money for the "Fisher Community Fund". This is a special fund that assist Fisher students who find themselves facing unexpected hardships.

As a Buckeye undergrad, I am no stranger to Dr. Gee and his adorable bowtie. He was President of Ohio State for my entire undergraduate career and the first year of my MBA program. On November 18, some Fisher students has the pleasure of having lunch with Dr. Gee and learning more about his background, views on OSU and how to keep energy and passion in your life.Dr. E. Gordon Gee has been president of West Virginia University, Vanderbilt, Brown and Ohio State (twice - because we are that awesome).

If you know me, it's no secret that I am a huge buckeye fan. But, when you go to Ohio State for undergrad, buckeye fever is in your blood! However, it's more than just a game on a field, it's an experience. From tailgating with Fisher friends beforehand to going to the game and cheering on a win, it's a great break from classes, homework, school, internship/job searching and the 10,000 other things on a business student's to-do list.Ohio State is full of rich traditions, but I think the football atmosphere takes win.

Last week was the 2013 National Middle Market Summit - Leading From The Middle, which is a collaboration between Fisher and GE Capital. The event ensures that the middle market receives the attention it deserves - and helps drive conversation around these vital industries.

Yesterday was the 2013 Mid Market Summit, and thanks to my GA, I was able to attend the afternoon sessions and help with social media. It was an incredible opportunity listening to business leaders discuss current trends, the future of the Middle Market and more.One of my favorite moments was listening to ESPN's Darren Rovell talk to Billy Beane (GM of the Oakland Athletics) about big data. Mr. Beane discussed the similarities between baseball and business - and how you need to trust your head, not your gut.
