A year to celebrate!

MESSAGE

It has been a wonderful year for the Economics Society! As we bring Winter term to a close I think back to the Fall, having fun with students and professors during our Prof Mixer, and coming up with all of the exciting ideas we would implement in 2014, among them being this newsletter.

I want to say THANK YOU to the executive team, the Economics Department, and most importantly to you, for helping make this newslettter, our eCon 2014 conference, and other projects a reality.

Most of the executives, including me, are graduating this term. It is a bittersweet feeling leaving the campus and the Society, but it opens doors for you who are full of new ideas and anxious to bring them to life. Go ahead, get involded, bring the crazy, the new, the different! I can't describe how rewarding this experience has been for me, and what I hope most is that there will be others with the drive and the passion to continue to make the Economics Society a success in the futute.

Sincerely,

Carla Valerio Pena

Academic VP
