WAKE FOREST: FREE MBA PROGRAM
Wake Forest University has an opportunity for minority students to attend its MBA program for FREE, and so far, the response has been very poor. Please, pass along this opportunity to your friends, families, and networks to see if there is an interest. This is a great school and a tremendous opportunity to attend a top graduate school.
Message from Derrick S. Boone, Ph.D.:
Greetings, I wanted to let you know about a great opportunity here at Wake Forest where you can get a FREE education and get PAID while you're doing it. Our Dean of the Schools of Business is the former CEO of PepsiCo and very committed to diversity. He's gone around to his CEO friends, who have agreed to donate a bunch of money to pay tuition and fees, provide a stipend, and a job, to diverse students. The details are below. The problem is, response to the program has been dismal! As a faculty member, I would be embarrassed for him to have to tell his CEO friends, "thanks so much for your donation, but unfortunately I have to give it back because we couldn't find Any students who wanted it." So, I need your help. Please contact me if you, or ANYONE you know is interested in the program. I want to help out as many young scholars as I can. Don't worry about whether or not you (or they) have taken the GMAT, etc. All you need to do at this point is JUST APPLY.
About the Program: The Master of Art in Management program is designed specifically for liberal arts majors only. The MA degree program is a 10 month intense study of the basic functional areas of Business. After graduation and working for approximately two years, all MA graduates are eligible to apply to Wake Forest as part of the MA/MBA joint degreeprogram and get the MBA in one year. The new Dean, Steve Reinemund, has created a new scholarship for diverse students pursuing the MA degree called the Corporate Fellowship.
The Corporate Fellowship provides full tuition and a $21,000 stipend to cover living expenses. Additionally, each Corporate Fellow will participate in a practicum. The practicum has two components, educational and professional development. Each student will be assigned a mentor that is a high level executive with their sponsor corporation.
The mentor will oversee an educational project covering 4 of the functional areas of business using their own corporation as the subject. The student will visit the corporation 3 - 4 times during the program to present his/her results of their research project. Additionally, the "professional development" component of the fellowship provides career coaching and leadership development for the students.
The goal for the corporation is to be able to groom and hopefully, hire a top candidate from a diverse background for their organization. Of course, there is no obligation that the students accept any offer of employment. Still, the student benefits, even if they are not ultimately hired by their sponsor corporation in that they have the MA degree and the type of experience that will make them more marketable.
Applications for admission and corporate fellowships to be awarded in 2010 are now being accepted. Please visit http://business.wfu.edu/default.aspx?id=454 for information on eligibility, the application process, answers to frequently asked questions, and contact information should you need further assistance.
Program Eligibility: MA in Management
The Wake Forest University Schools of Business seek individuals who have demonstrated achievement through academic coursework, professional experience and community involvement. Wake Forest looks for leadership ability, motivation, focus, enthusiasm, strong values and teamwork skills in its prospective students.
For Summer 2010 enrollment, candidates must meet the following criteria:
Applicant must hold or be pursuing a bachelor's degree from an accredited college or university.
Applicant's major must be in the liberal arts, sciences or engineering disciplines (applicants with business or business-related majors are not eligible for this program; business minors are eligible to apply).
Applicants must have graduated from college on or after May 2009 and have less than 12 months of full-time post-graduate work experience.

SEASONAL HELP NEEDED AT UPS
UPS Seasonal Driver Helpers: Thanksgiving – Christmas! (Days - No Driving Required)
- Work in Your Own Neighborhood! Earn Extra Cash for the Holidays! No Driving Required!
- Get paid for a great workout! Home every night! Weekends off!
- Driver picks you up near your home and drops you off at same location at end of day!
Why work a dead-end boring retail job at a mall or health club or restaurant during the holidays when you can be on the road delivering packages to people and businesses? As a UPS seasonal Driver Helper you will not drive the delivery vehicle but assist the UPS Driver in the delivery of packages. Seasonal Driver Helpers usually meet the UPS Driver at a mutually agreed upon time and location each weekday (Monday through Friday) and typically do not work on weekends or selected holidays. Hours vary but usually begin after 8:00 a.m. and end before 8:00 p.m. Seasonal Driver Helpers must comply with UPS appearance guidelines. Driver Helper seasonal opportunities are typically between the Thanksgiving and Christmas holiday time period. Ideal job for college students on break between Fall and Spring semesters, as well as people just looking to earn some extra cash quickly.
Seasonal Driver Helpers typically work longer hours than Package Handlers each day assisting UPS Drivers with delivery of their packages. The Driver Helper position is temporary and does not provide benefits but usually depending upon location, may provide a higher hourly rate. If your schedule does not allow you to work days as a seasonal Driver Helper, we also have some seasonal and permanent positions available during twilight, night, or sunrise sorts for Part-time Package Handlers working at a UPS facility near you.
