Freshman Seminar Fall 17 DMC

Workshop Thoughts- (club-Ascend)

     Last Thursday, I went to the Ascend club’s meeting at 12:00 pm with couple of my friends. Back to the convocation day, a leader in that club already introduce their club to me. This club is about Finance and Accounting and i was unsure about my major so i just have a little bit interesting of this club. We went to a small room and it contained about 30 people. Before we started the meeting, there were many foods we could get such as noodles, rice and many different kind of drinks. The staff was friendly and asked us to take foods. After we got food and signed up, the president started to present. He talked about how the Ascend work and there are 4 committee in the club. This club contain the professional development committee, marketing committee, technology committee and fundraising committee. Each of the leader of the committee introduce themselves and explain what are their jobs in this club. The professional development committee is give members the opportunities to network with recruiters, alumni, and professionals. The marketing committee is promote  Ascend’s mission and events though different platforms. The technology committee, which is the most interesting one i think, in this committee you can learn to use PS, JAVA, C++…and put posts of events to the club’s website or Facebook. The Fundraising committee’s jobs are bridge to corporations, industry and professional development.  They showed the video about how people like these committee and how they think it will be helpful when they join this club. In addition, this club showed a calendar of events they will have for this year, at the end of meeting. After the meeting, i was think about the major i might take but i’m really could not decide now so l may not join this club now,and may be join it later. However, the meeting was good and really could know somethings.
