As I begin to wrap up (SAD!) my MBA life program at Pepperdine, I have realized that one of the greatest takeaways for me is the friendships I have developed over the 2 years. It's a heartwarming feeling to know that my group of friends are my support group, cheerleaders and a shoulder to whine on. I have recently been down in regards to being unemployed, like the majority of our graduating class. But I have received countless emails from friends and peers with HR job openings.That's the great underlying culture of Pepperdine, the collaboration. We are all competing with one another for a job, but we're also helping each other along the way.
It was comforting to know that my friends were thinking of me when a potential HR opportunity opens up. I also recently had a birthday celebration over the past weekend. In the midst of finals and Easter weekend, I was touched to see that everyone showed up to help me turn a year wiser. The saddest thing about ending my MBA era is the friendship that I have developed here. I will no longer see the familiar faces in the cafeteria or in class.
