Dean's Leadership Council

Mission Statement:

To serve as ambassadors of the University at Albany School of Business through advocacy, networking, and communication in an effort to foster a sense of community, pride, and tradition amongst all.

In true business fashion, in March of 2005, a group of School of Business students met with Dean Paul Leonard to discuss improving communication within the school. As a result, the Dean's Leadership Council was formed, a consortium of the student groups within the school that the Dean utilizes as a student advisory group. The goal: Enhance the sense of community throughout the School of Business.

In addition to facilitating the exchange of ideas between School of Business groups, the DLC assists in helping new students adjust as well as hosting the end of semester DLC All-Nighter to prepare School of Business Students for their finals. DLC also hosts various social activities including sporting events in order to foster communicative yet fun activities throughout the diverse business organizations. The next step: open new lines of communication within the School of Business community through the implementation of a Blackboard pilot program to supplement the Blackboard program already used on campus.

Members of the DLC include the following organizations, all of which offer meetings and occasions for self-development, community service, networking and fun:
