Past Events (Spring 2008):

Year-end Meeting & Sneak Preview of AOL Ad Campaign Created by Villanova NSAC Team

April 30, 2008, from 5:00 to 6:30 p.m. in 1011 Bartley Hall

 

As is our custom, the highlight of our final meeting will be a sneak preview of the advertising campaign created by the students in the Integrated Marketing Campaigns class (MKT 4132). The campaign has been entered in the National Student Advertising Competition (NSAC), which is organized by the American Advertising Federation.

The NSAC pits over 200 colleges across the country in a competition to come up with the best ad campaign for a corporate sponsor. This year’s corporate sponsor is AOL. Our students have come up with a campaign to re-brand, re-position, and rejuvenate AOL. It’s been an exciting project, and the best is yet to come.

Presenting the campaign and representing Villanova in the NSAC District Finals are the following ‘Nova students: Greg Ahern, Ashley Chiarello, Aaron Levy, Chris Notaro, and Suzanne Thompson. The District Finals are this Saturday in NYC.

Also on the agenda for meeting: the installation of the Ad Society’s new E-Board and a salute to our outgoing officers—Colleen Dunleavy, Kim Lam, and Nina Shah—who are graduating in May. It will be a festive occasion with food and prizes, as we salute our current and future leaders and show our support for the students who will be representing Villanova in the NSAC.
 

How to Leverage Your Business Degree on Capital Hill

April 23, 2008, from 5:00 to 6:00 p.m. in 1011 Bartley Hall

 

Mention “Capitol Hill,” and many different images arise, some good, some bad. But one thing is certain: it is the seat of power and with that comes opportunity. Washington, DC always needs experts: economists, accountants, marketers, lawyers, and business people in general.

 

Come learn how to leverage your business degree on Capitol Hill as the Villanova Advertising and Marketing Societies present, Elvis Oxley, President of Oxley Consulting, a DC-based, government affairs firm. The firm represents companies with interests in financial services, intellectual property, disabled veterans, the National Parks, and Homeland Security. Mr. Oxley will discuss the career options available on Capitol Hill and how to get started.

 

All Villanova students are welcome. Business casual attire suggested. Special thanks to the VSB Center for Marketing & Public Policy Research for arranging this event. And for more information about Mr. Oxley’s firm, please visit www.oxley-consulting.com.
