Hello all!

Hope everybody had a great summer, but unfortunately we are all back to school once again. Instead of stressing and complaining about it, lets make it a good year! Check us out in front of the BBC building starting this coming Wednesday where we will have our stands set up and students can come find out more information about our fun and exciting club!

We look forward to seeing new and old faces this semester. More updates will come shortly about our first meetings.

Let the great semester begin!

Fall 2010

Howard Lim — Wed, 26 May 2010 16:33:18 +0000

Hello everyone!

Now that finals are over, and the semester has officially ended, I just wanted to take the time to give you all some updates on next semester. I will be graduating, as well as a few of the other officers, however I would like to introduce you to Ryan Er. He will be taking over my position, however I will still be around, as well as most of the other graduating officers to oversee next semester’s operations.

SAM is looking forward to a great Fall semester, and would really love to see current non-graduating members again next semester, as well as fresh new faces! We don’t have anything official planned as far as events for next semester yet, but please stay tuned to our website for more details!

Also, more updates to the website will take place soon – especially picture uploads from all of this semester’s events. Take care and have a great summer from all of us here at the Society for Advancement of Management!

Howard Lim — Wed, 10 Mar 2010 23:03:11 +0000

Everyone,

Come by tomorrow to our general meeting at the Ohlone Room in the Student Union at 3:30PM. Because we are having our Alice in Wonderland fundraiser the same night, we will be likely using this time to relax and go over a few things. Stop by for coffee and donuts. We will also be handing out complementary tickets to those who earned them for selling tickets.

See ya there!

Happy Hour/Social at Flames Restaurant

Howard Lim — Thu, 25 Feb 2010 19:33:49 +0000

Due to poor/rushed planning on my part (as well as Juan Palma) SAM is having a social tomorrow (Friday the 26th) at 4-6PM at the Flames Restaurant off 4th Street and San Fernando. We’d like to invite all of you to come and just hang out, have an appetizer or even a drink as its Happy Hour! Appetizers and drinks are half off (around $3-5 each). All members and non-members are invited to come out and meet the officers as well as other members on a more personal level. We all know how hard it is to get to know people in more formal settings, and would love for you to all come out and get to know each other better!

We apologize for the late notice, but this is why Juan and myself are not event coordinators! See below for maps/directions

Hope to see you all there!

Quick Update

Howard Lim — Mon, 28 Sep 2009 23:41:11 +0000

Good afternoon all,

Some of you may have received an email from me regarding your membership dues being refunded if you payed via Google Checkout. Google has been unresponsive with our issues (such as not paying us) and therefore we have decided to stop using their services. Please stay tuned as a PayPal solution will be added within the next few days. However, we will still be accepting cash at our next event for those who are uncomfortable having to deal with paying online yet again. Also, look forward to updates tonight on upcoming events (as we have many to share!) will be posted.

Again, those who have received the email have NOT been removed from SAM in any way, shape or form. Stay tuned!
