After our General body meeting we held our weekly executive board meeting, and here is a small recap of the discussion. On Sunday March 7, the DMA will be manning a table for Accepted Students Day. Accepted students can come by and speak with DMA representatives to learn more about our organization. That is it for this recap, be sure to follow our twitter, check our Facebook group, and Lebow ticker for upcoming event details and news.

This presentation will reveal the different parts of a brand, what brand identity means, and how to build a strong brand.

Christine Sheller, the Creative Director for Susquehanna International Group will present the session.

You will get CEO credit for attending this event and it will be a great way to learn about brand identity from a professional.

This event is supported by The Department of Culture and Communication, The Creating Excellent Organizations Program, and The Drexel Marketing Association.
