Penn State Meetings and Events Club

Hi everyone!! We missed you all over break. We had the amazing opportunity to meet Bree at PCMA Convening Leaders 22, and are SUPER excited to host her at our next meeting. Keep an eye out for the zoom link!

Today, we had the opportunity to give back to the Las Vegas community at the Hilton booth, making packs that included soap and first aid kits for a local women’s shelter!

A big thank you to PSU Alum, Amanda Roman for taking some time to connect with us at the @hilton booth today!!

We Are!... loving the positive vibes here at Convening Leaders!! #pcmacl #cl22

We had a great conversation with PSU alum, Joe Bocherer this morning! Thank you to all of our alum for always being so willing to share your expertise. #pcmacl #cl22

Thank you to our outgoing executive board for your leadership! In this challenging year, we accomplished much. We transformed our in-person Pineapple Gala into a successful virtual format with Pineapple Paint Night. We were recognized with student awards from Penn State as Student Organization of Fall 2020 Semester and most recently Outstanding Philanthropy Event/2021 Student Organization Awards, and from PCMA as the Student Chapter of the Year.

The Meetings and Events Club Executive Team Applications are due tonight! DM us with any questions! #PennStateMEC #PennState #PennStateSHM #WeAre #HospitalityManagement #Events

Are you excited about a career in events and hospitality, but worried about the current pandemic-instigated slowdown in the industry? The events business is still the place to be with many career paths you might not yet know about. Hospitality is the #5 employer of all major industries and is more than just wedding planning.
