It is with great pleasure that I have the honor of writing the last blog post by the current editorial board. As you know, MBA IRISH ECHOES launched in the Fall of 2016 in an effort to preview \u201cLife Inside the Notre Dame MBA Program\u201d. We\u2019ve had numerous posts on topics such as <\/span>football weekends<\/span><\/a>, <\/span>dual-degree programs<\/span><\/a>, <\/span>study abroad<\/span><\/a>, <\/span>student treks<\/span><\/a>, <\/span>extracurricular activities<\/span><\/a>, and <\/span>best tips and practices as an MBA<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

I would like to thank the Class of 2017 in their remarkable efforts in launching the blog to what it is today, particularly, <\/span>Nitesh Srivastava and Bill Brunner<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Last, but certainly not least, I would like to introduce the new leadership team for the upcoming academic year, <\/span>Jack Pelzer and T.J. Connors<\/span><\/a>. Jack and T.J. are excellent leaders in the Class of 2018 and will continue to build upon the blog\u2019s efforts in showcasing the opportunities and unique culture that comprise the Notre Dame MBA program.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Thanks for everything, and as always, Go Irish!<\/span><\/p>\n
