Marketing Major
"Eberly College of Business and Information Technology consists of a very unique educational atmosphere that I believe I would not have gained through any other university. There is a special bond between the faculty and a student that not only assists with better learning, but inspires you as an individual to achieve and learn more than you had anticipated."
My name is Laura Robinette and I am an Ä¢¹½tv alumni. I am originally from Commerce, Mich., and due to the various opportunities that Ä¢¹½tv offers, I decided to pursue my educational experience, as well as continue my athletic career in volleyball, at this university.
As a student, I became greatly involved at the university and began to participate in a variety of activities. While committing to the Ä¢¹½tv athletic volleyball team, I also became a member of the Student Athletic Advisory Committee (2006-2007). In addition, I was involved with the Student Cooperative Association as a finance committee member (2007-2008), and participated on the Board of Directors (2007-2009).
I had the opportunity to participate in a great amount of community service as well, which has inspired me in many ways and helped me realize the importance of giving back to the community. As a student athlete, I learned many valuable lessons that have contributed to my overall accomplishments at Ä¢¹½tv and will continue to guide and support my future successes.
I graduated with a Bachelor of Science degree in Marketing, with the recognition of Summa Cum Laude. By having great determination and inspiration, I was able to achieve all of this within three years of my education career. I am very proud and honored to be recognized by Ä¢¹½tv and the Eberly College of Business and Information Technology, where opportunities guided my success and achievements beyond my expectations.
Laura is currently an Account/Market Manager at Active Network in San Diego, California (as of Fall 2013).
