The Palumbo-Donahue Student Advisory Council (PDSAC) provides student feedback to the Dean's office. PDSAC members help the School of Business:
The executive board members of each business student organization automatically become PDSAC members. PDSAC officers are elected to their positions.
Each spring, PDSAC plans and hosts an alumni panel that advises students on how to negotiate job offers and salaries. As a student, you will learn how to set yourself up for growth and success in your new roles.
