Simmons Student Reflects on Summer Elective
Simmons School of Management MBA student Noelle San Jose offers a student’s insight to taking electives outside of the cohort over the summer. San Jose writes in the Simmons student blog:
“I was unsure about stepping out of that group to take an elective this summer. Being that I have yet to take the Negotiations course, I had yet to acquire the skills to convince others to join me in the summer elective I found most relevant to my goals and interests, writes San Jose.” “Once I was able to login to the class website, I saw no familiar names and thought the worst: the fear of having to introduce yourself to another group of strangers is the stuff on sleepless nights–ice breakers can be the worst! Would I be the last kid picked for the team? But then I remembered that I’m at the Simmons School of Management and nothing here is ever that bad,” she said.
