As promised, more information about "BBW".
Officially, BBW's mission is "developing a strong network of Christian women to provide opportunities for personal growth and business relationship development by integrating professional insight, integrity and leadership."
So basically, we're a network of Christian women created to personal development and business skills. We do this by a combination of socials, educational events, and community service. For example, I was blessed this year to participate in a build for Habitat for Humanity with a team of the BBW.
Ethics, philanthropy, growth, and sisterhood...all in business context. We wear our purple v-necks proudly around campus, but show up dressed professionally for every meeting; I love the combination of casual and corporate, learning and serving, that are all tied into BBW.
If you want to see more (like our Prison Entrepreneurship Program!) look at the link to our site below. Believe me, you'll hear plenty about it in the future.

...That was the final thing I forgot to mention, I'm the new President!
The youngest they've had actually, and amazingly I didn't even apply for the position, it was offered to me after my interview for the Community Service Chair spot. They liked my vision, and so a few days later called and asked if I was interested! Wow! It's funny how things like that happen and I feel incredibly privileged to be in this place.
And for those that recall being my selection of "Most Likely to Succeed" from last semester, yesterday I represented Baylor Business Women at the Career Expo and helped vote for this semester's students that in the running. The Lord has certainly gone before me back here! If you would like to pray, pray for the ladies on the board. Pray that I serve those I am to lead well! And please pray with thanksgiving and request that I represent Him well in all I do.
I am so excited to head the Baylor Business Women into the 2010-2011 school year, and feel so blessed by the ladies on the board with me...friendships have begun to develop quickly :)
