Dr. Leeanne Bell McManus' Advanced Event Planning class welcomed three BizComm alums back as guests of the class that meets Wednesday evenings. The three alums -- Brittany Koehler, Chelsea Moog, and LynnAaron Nichols (seated left to right) -- are all involved in event planning careers in some form, and they talked with the students about what their careers involved. With a tremendous alumni network, the Business Communication department depends on our alums to help guide the current students' understanding of possible career paths.

Members of Dr. Leeanne Bell McManus' Advanced Event Planning class were invited to help work the Baltimore Business Journal's Book of Lists Gala at the Four Seasons Hotel in Baltimore on Feb. 9. With over 500 guests attending the event each year, the Baltimore Business Journal staff has consistently called upon Stevenson University's Business Communication majors to help work the gala. Students in the class arrived early, stayed late, and were of enormous help to the BBJ's event planners. (Photo courtesy of Dr.. Leeanne Bell McManus)
