Alfred L. Edwards 37th Annual BBSA Conference
February 15 - 16, 2013 Ann Arbor
The
Black Business Student
Association (BBSA) at the Ross School of Business was founded in
1970. It is a reflection of the school's commitment to educating
future minority business leaders and creating a diverse business school
community, which as resulted in the Black Business Students' Association
becoming one of the most visible and active student-led organizations on
campus.
The first BBSA
conference began in 1976 as a networking event with only 15
participants. This year's 36th Annual Conference had over 200.
The conference serves as a networking forum during which students,
alumni, and other members of our community can share their personal
experiences and provide support to one another.
