Tips
● Be sure you are muted anytime you are not speaking. It will help eliminate feedback.
● If you need the Professor’s help during a breakout room session, click on “Ask for Help”
and then “Invite Host”. This will alert the Professor and he or she can then join your
breakout room.
● Turn your video off during breaks - turn it back on when the next session begins.
● Find a space that is as quiet and distraction-free as possible.

engaged in pioneering research, professionals who have corporate, nonprofit, and government
leadership experience, and entrepreneurs who mentor students looking to start businesses. We

graduates just entering the business world to seasoned professionals looking to transform their
careers.
CULTURE OF COLLABORATION
Building on our Jesuit heritage, we emphasize collaboration over competition, resulting in a
supportive environment that encourages students to forge close friendships and extend their
learning beyond the classroom. This unique atmosphere develops thoughtful leaders who strive
not only to succeed in business, but also to have a positive impact on the community.
