To our valued Corporate Partners:
On behalf of the Roberto Clemente Minority Business Association (RCMBA)
of the College of Business Administration, we would formally like to thank you
for your interest in our organization. We are looking forward to the prospect
of partnering with you throughout the 2009-2010 academic year.
The Roberto Clemente Minority Business Association (RCMBA) is the quintessential resource for minority students matriculating through the College of Business Administration at the University of Pittsburgh. We are dedicated to academic excellence, visionary leadership, diversity, and service to the Pittsburgh community. The goal of RCMBA is to develop its members by promoting professional and leadership development, providing academic support and serving as mentors. This continued investment in our members has enabled RCMBA to become the premier source for corporate recruiters to locate talented minority students. One of the main venues where recruiters can interact with our members is at our annual Minorities in Pittsburgh Conference (MIP). This conference serves as a medium to showcase the talent and diversity of our members, while giving them an opportunity to network with corporate partners who are interested in recruiting the finest students that the University of Pittsburgh has to offer.
The vision of RCMBA is to “transform the corporate world through diversity” and throughout 2009-2010, we will commit to “a year to S.E.R.V.E.: Selflessness, Ethics, Regard, Vitality, Elevate.” We believe RCMBA members should work selflessly in the best interest of each other, maintain a strong system of ethics, hold each other in high regard, and approach each situation and challenge with an unshakable vitality so that we are able to elevate the organization in order to “transform the corporate world through diversity.” No individual can achieve their goals and realize their aspirations without the help and support of one another. RCMBA will strive this year to keep this ideal at the forefront of our minds to direct our actions in service to each other, our partners, and the Pittsburgh community. Especially in these troubling economic times, we must work diligently to develop our personal areas of strength and use those strengths to work for the best interest of others. From ensuring that our members are of the best quality for your recruitment efforts to donating our time to help advance the Pittsburgh community, every action that we take throughout the new administration will be focused on our commitment of a “year to S.E.R.V.E.”
We look forward to developing and growing our partnership with you throughout the next year. Your commitment to RCMBA throughout the past has contributed to the growth and success of the organization and we look forward to your continued partnership to the organization into the future! Thank you.
Sincerely,
Erica Simpson
