Last month our University Relations team answered the sponsorship call and sponsored a team of Penn State MBA's to participate in the 2009 Duke MBA Games.

The Games are a fundraising effort for the Special Olympics of North Carolina.  The Penn State MBA team, complete with four future Dell employees , brought home the coveted Championship of bragging rights!

Below is the update and thank you letter from Jenny Moerschbacher, Penn State MBA candidate, past Dell Intern and future  Dell Employee.

We are proud the see our future employees participating in the community.

Dear Dell,

On behalf of the Smeal MBA program, we would like to thank Dell for sponsoring us in the 2009 Duke MBA Games and…helping us to bring home the championship! It was a long, grueling weekend of events and MBA socializing but we were able to score points in the basketball shoot, bean bag toss, dizzy bat relay, and business suit swimming relay. In the end, it came down to our fundraising efforts in which we scored first place raising close to $3,500 for the Special Olympics of North Carolina. This allowed us to overtake Tepper and 14 other teams; pretty impressive considering we only scored 1 point last year! The Special Olympics were extremely appreciative of the sponsorships, and we had a great time participating with our Special Olympians Steve and John. Again, THANK YOU so much for your sponsorship!

Sincerely,

Jenny and The Smeal MBA Program
