I continue to be impressed with the opportunities Seattle U. provides with regards to networking and social events outside of class. A few weeks ago, one of our student associations, AGSA, sponsored an “Albers Night at Safeco” by providing free Mariners tickets and a happy hour at FX McRory’s. FX McRory’s has helped host this event for years because their GM is also a Seattle U. alum! I was a little hesitant to go, as I didn’t recognize many people on the guest list. But the event was a blast, as it was a great chance to meet casually not only with students, but with faculty and alumni, who joined the group as well. The Mariners may not have won that night, but it didn’t seem to matter. The fact that we were able to experience a group outing was the fun part, and seeing those same people on campus the following week just helps make the graduate program that much more rewarding. Looking forward to the next event!
