Matt Meacham won the award for traveling the furthest to the event, as he traveled from Washington, DC! Current Raikes School students pursuing summer internships in Seattle also joined us – Luke Farritor (interning at SpaceX), Cole Johnson (interning at Microsoft), and Sam Schneider (interning at Boeing).
The Raikes School was also pleased to have Chancellor Ronnie Green and his wife Jane in attendance. Chancellor Green spoke about his excitement for the future growth of the Raikes School, including plans in the works for an additional living and learning space for Raikes School students, and a new School of Computing building. As primary partners of the Raikes School, both the School of Computing and College of Business will soon be located within a short walk of the Kauffman Center.
For those of you who couldn’t make it to Seattle, we look forward to seeing you in Lincoln during Alumni Reunion weekend, September 30 – October 1. More information about the events, the RSVP, and details for a hotel room block will be sent in the coming weeks.
