Swipe left to see @blissgriffin’s typical day as an MBA student at @fordhamgsb! . Hi, everyone! My name is @BlissGriffin, a first-year fulltime MBA Student at Fordham University’s Gabelli School of Business in New York City (@fordhamgsb @FordhamUniversity). For my Instagram takeover, I want to show you around our Midtown Manhattan campus and walk you through a day in my life, so let’s go! . I’m up early, and ready to take on the city! #ProTip: Start with a little inspiration… and, with coffee. On my way to campus, I get off the train right at the center of the business world. Gabelli is located in Midtown Manhattan, adjacent to the famous performing arts venue, #LincolnCenter―two blocks from #CentralPark, and only 10 minutes away from over 300 company headquarters located in NYC. #NewYorkIsMyCampus . One of the reasons why I love @fordhamgsb is the emphasis on collaboration and team work. With a cohort of 45 students, the #GabelliMBA really helps you grow your network and create bonds with classmates, faculty, and alum. After our strategy class, we sat down for a quick meeting to discuss our upcoming project. #StriveTogether #ThriveTogether . A #GabelliMBA is not all about charts and spreadsheets. Here’s a #ThrowBack to the board of the Black & Hispanic MBA Association kicking off our annual Halloween Bash! #WorkHardPlayHard . Ending the day at my desk with some late-night project planning… and, more coffee! #GradSchoolLife #GabelliMBA
