Beta Gamma Sigma inducts 43 members

The Elon University chapter of Beta Gamma Sigma inducted 43 new members in a ceremony on May 8.

The chapter honoree and guest speaker was Britt Carter, vice president and general manager at Fleishman-Hillard Inc. Carter, a member of the Love School of Business Board of Advisors, delivered a presentation titled “Defining your personal brand.”

Elon’s inaugural Beta Gamma Sigma Professor of the Year award was presented to Linda Poulson, chair and associate professor of accounting. The award was based on the following criteria: encourages and honors high academic achievement by students of business and management; fosters in students an enduring commitment to the founding principles and values of the Society: honor and integrity, pursuit of wisdom, and earnestness; and supports the advancement of business thought and practice to encourage lifelong learning.

Beta Gamma Sigma is an international honor society that provides the highest recognition a business student anywhere in the world can receive in a baccalaureate or post-baccalaureate program at a school accredited by AACSB International.
