A special ‘Thank You’ to those who’ve influenced me during my college years
There’s many people in our lives that we thank for the words they’ve said, the things they’ve done, and the way they’ve made us feel. Quite too often we go on with our daily lives and we don’t tell these people how much the little or big things mean to us or how they’ve touched […]
Apartment Hunting – What they don’t teach you how to do in college…
So, I’m writing this blog from a Marriott hotel in St. Louis Park, Minnesota as I look at seven different pamphlets of potential apartment homes I may be renting so I can start my new job next year. Some of the pamphlets made it straight to the ground, but the others are serious contenders. However, […]
Our last formal Supply Chain Leadership Association event of the semester was a huge success! We packed Papitto and had a great time learning about lean manufacturing.

Two of my best friends here at Bryant are part of the honors program and have taken honors classes since freshmen year.

So, even though I’ve accepted a full-time position after […]

We’ve hosted four guest speakers, a student internship panel, a networking event with over 30 professionals in attendance, attended an APICS case competition in Albany, NY, hosted the Institute of Business Forecasting and Planning New England Chapter on campus, and sent students […]
One of the coolest things about Bryant is that you have everything at your fingertips. The academic building, gym, dining hall, library, and health services offices are so close you could basically get through the semester without leaving campus if you wanted to. (Though I would recommend stocking up on those ‘essentials’ if you plan […]
Lucien Agniel – Managing Director at Agniel Commodities Joins our SCM Finance Course
This semester is the first time the course “Financing the Supply Chain” has been offered. It’s a new course that combines finance and supply chain topics though case-based and project learning. So far, I’ve really enjoyed the cases we’ve covered and the commodity hedging project we finished last week. To tie off the section of […]
Bryant Senior Advisory Council – Senior Leadership Values Students’ Opinions
Bryant University takes students’ opinions very seriously. From small matters to opinions on the strategic direction of the university, the faculty, staff and senior leadership want to listen, acknowledge, and understand the ideas that come from the student body. This past fall, seniors had the opportunity to apply to the Bryant Senior Advisory Council (BSAC). […]
