New Women in Business Club at Robert Morris University

This fall semester, Women in Business became an official club here at Robert Morris University. The first meeting was held on October 28^th and was led by the club’s officers. The organization, advised by Dr. Jill Maher and Dr. Daria Crawley, has a goal of empowering and connecting women in the School of Business. At the first meeting, members discussed what they wanted from the club and voted on the slogan and cause to fundraise for. After the votes were counted, it was decided that Women in Business would be raising money for Pennsylvania Women Work, a nonprofit dedicated to empowering women in career transition. The organization’s slogan was chosen to be, “There is no force equal to a woman determined to rise!” -W.E.B. Dubois. Friday, November 13^th is the last day to turn in applications and dues.  Applications and money should be put in a sealed envelope and placed in either Dr. Maher or Dr. Crawley’s mailbox, located in Massey Hall. The next meeting is tentatively scheduled for November 18^th at 9pm. While the club may be focused towards women, men are welcome to join. If you have any questions, feel free to contact Dr. Maher at maher@rmu.edu or Dr. Crawley at crawley@rmu.edu.
